First person view of a man seen only in shadow attempting to connect with the world around him.

VIBE

A deeply introspective journey into the shadows of the self. This film feels like a half-remembered dream, a haunting exploration of connection and disconnection. Its preserved, grainy aesthetic adds to the melancholic, lonely atmosphere.
