​Director’s Statement

Science fiction stories are one of the best ways to explore hard hitting concepts and far out ideas that may not have ever really been considered. This genre is a powerful vessel to ask the "what if's" of our universe and beyond.

​What would happen if a person that could morph his appearance into anyone he wants, has finally lost grasp of his own true identity? Millions of people suffer from self-identity problems around the world. I explore how it would affect someone who has this supernatural ability but still can't escape the misery of not understanding themselves. I hope that the audience will see how this person fails to use their gift but discovers in retrospect that the path to healing a self-identity crises can be achieved through self-rumination instead of just the way they look on the outside.

I have used this short film to explore and pose these kind of questions and now I intend to further explore this depth and venture some of the answers in the feature length version of the film.
