This, right here, is CINEMATIC BRILLIANCE. In a crowded RUclips world of "cinematic (read: bokeh)" shots and negligible storytelling, this movie is a gem. I came here for inspiration for a short I'm working on, and damn, this is so much more than I'd hoped for. Kudos.
My friend sent me this, here’s my theory: Asher is in a coma after a suicide attempt and her mind is retreating to a place of comfort and familiarity - her father’s bookshop. Hale is her guardian angel trying to get her to wake up, only he’s new on the job and can’t get the conversation to lead her there naturally, hence why he keeps looping.
this is way better than I expected to be honest. Because of the thumbnail it thought it would be a romance short film but I was clearly wrong. Great work
The 4th wall is this concept in film where there's a sort of barrier separating the audience and the characters in a film. When a character in a film interacts with the audience, which can consist of speaking towards the audience and/or looking at the camera, it's considered breaking the 4th wall. The character and audience interaction breaks through that former separation. (Copied from another comment)
@@Imalkiwhere the camera is basically. Like when in a show they usaly don’t show the tv they just show the family on the couch. If they showed the tv that’s breaking the fourth wall
I love the concept! It reminded me of sometimes when I had a lucid dream, where I can sort of control them and just do it all over again if it's not working in my dream 😆😉
@@Ashley-s2t2 idk how did I do it but I've once read that one of the ways to lucid dream is you have to write your dream in your journal or smtg. I guess that works for me. I didn't write it every single time but I do write it or tell my friend whenever I have vivid dreams or good dreams. It might take some time but you can try it. But these days, I didn't really have any lucid dreams, just vivid dreams
I'm amazed! Because you guys really captured the feeling of 'dreaming', I mean 'DREAM'. Yeah, those who know the moment of dreaming and waking at the dawn, like 'I don't want to come out of it, no no I want to... I don't, I do, I don't, I do' and someone shouting in my mind, 'Wake up... WAKE UP!!!!' It's incredible!
Every person has a illusional world in mind . Some of them always visits there and some always wants to stay there . Because in that world he or she can control every moment , if a thing goes wrong it can start from beginning just like this girl with the boy. I love this film truly beautiful ❤️
You're so talented. This film beautifully captures the essence of dreaming, with its soft music and beautiful bookstore as a background. I also love your idea about breaking the 4th wall. It makes it feel so fresh and original. I can't wait to see what else you create. ❤

THIS WAS INCREDIBLEEE!ive been following you on tik tok and watching the progress and the bts!i love how you broke the 4th wall and i didn’t expect it!i love this smmmm keep up the good work!!💗💗
omg! This is so good! I cant really describe how i feel rn. The whole scenario was so good that it made my heart break. The actors were something else! Well done to the actors and the writer! Great job
This is amazing and very well done. Way better than the intro of a thousand movies released in the last years. I would love a continuation explaining who or what is Hale and why can't he let Asher live in her illusion. Very intriguing.
Very well executed. Authentic portrayal of the roles by both actors. The title and the message became clear right at the end. The girl is literally trapped between words, in the fictional world of characters not knowing the right thing to say. The boy is right when he is telling her that it is an illusion. Asking her to wake up really hits hard.
What a fine short film! I loved the setting, music, acting, and everything about the film Even the choice of words such as the title, which refers both to a reader's willingness to get trapped in the imaginary world of fiction, and to the language the writer uses to communicate with the readers. The male character stands as fictional characters, which explains why the girl finds him familiar. He also finds it difficult to communicate with the reader, but since he is fiction, he can replay the same scenario multiple times to get his point. It was just great and lovely! Thank you for sharing it 😊
Oh, oh! Very surprising of you. What a story! I certainly not expected this. A dream where there is no distinction between reality and illusion. Wow! I'm amazed. Wholly.
This was great. At first I thought it was this superhuman guy trying to shoot his shot or maybe an author trying to find a perfect way to make his characters meet. Boy, this was great! 👍🏽
nossa ficou muito legal, me pergunto como será que é a vida de Asher e o motivo do Hale está no sonho dela. Confesso que fico na expectativa de uma continuação. Um like daqui do Brasil!
This was good. For a short film it was great. I would like more, maybe a part 2? Her, awake, being introspective about whatever happened? But this was good and well done.
Great story and beautifully shot! I am not convinced by the performances of the actors unfortunately, didn't hold me in. But there is so much potential here, and so much achieved already, you will go far! Keep it up!
This is really great. So beautifully portrayed. This is my 3rd time watching this and I still love it😭💕 I don't know how to explain this but there's something in this short film that's pulling me back again and again to watch. Tha acting, cinematography, the background music and everything all and all is fantastic ❤
Nice film, that however shows the tragic display of todays world, in which we are not trapped in a world of words, but in a world of commerce. Imagine this bookstore being the internet and our smartphones, in which we try to escape from the real world. Where in this bookstore you choose entirely yourself which book you take of a shelf, start reading through or maybe even buy and a kind youngman helps you even by telling you there is still the real world outthere, that - with however much tragedy and challenges - still is a wonderful place if we (all) finally stop choosing selfishly. In the world of internet and smartphones, this bookstore is filled with items brought to you manipulated by commerce and algoritmes, addicting you, bending your brain into a more and more fake world going to extremes and leading you further and further into what initially may seem a dream, but will become a nightmare. And no, there is no kind youngman that wants you to wake up. There are only CEO's of large multinationals, rich shareholders of big business and ICT-managers of tech giants trying to convince you to just go on and on and on ... into oblivion.
I wondered what it meant by trapped between words. I thought maybe like not knowing the right thing to say. But then in the end i got the message that shes trapped between books amd fictional worlds and it hit deep, i loved it but i also felt attacked lol
This reminds me of when I’m daydreaming and keep restarting the scenario because I don’t like how it’s coming out🫣
The reality of which we live in is set to challenge us for when we die miIeueuwypsnsit😂 w
Same here
For realll 😅

I loved that I didn't have any idea what was about to happen next. also loved him breaking the 4th wall

That's a well-knit explanation!
that’s so good ❤
Loved your theory ❤
Thats an absolutely awesome theory omg
Guardian angel who's new at the job... :D
hey guy!!! actress here :)
Oh,heyy i loved
you did amazing!! ❤
You were amazing congrats!!
you were great !!
hey, you are good actress 🎉
this is way better than I expected to be honest. Because of the thumbnail it thought it would be a romance short film but I was clearly wrong. Great work
Ayoo??? The fourth wall?? I just love how he reverses time. This film is just-I love it????
LITERALLY SAME OMLLLLLL

I love the feel of the intimacy that the shots give the film, it makes it feel isolated and just adds to the overall aesthetic. Great job :)
this is amazing and breaking the 4th wall is even more insane, i love it so much! i can't wait for more!! congratulations!
Where can i watch itt?
@@exoada9246 ??? literally here
Wt is the 4th wall ?

Also in the room u can only see 3 walls
I love the concept! It reminded me of sometimes when I had a lucid dream, where I can sort of control them and just do it all over again if it's not working in my dream 😆😉
the fact that I can relate to it
@@sidenx 😆😆
How do u guys lucid dream cause I tried and couldn't plz tell!

Seriously? I've never heard anything like that before!
OMGGG I THOUGHT IT WAS GOING TO BE A CLICHÉ ROMANCE MOVIE IN Q LIBRARY
Dude I this is so unpredictable and I love it. Breaking the 4th wall and restarting the dream is so insane. Thumbs up for the creator of the idea.
Bookworms sobbing in the background. Genuinely i love this❤

What a great short film! It‘s really witty with the actor trying to get it right every time so that she won‘t be pissed at him or smth 😂 love it!
This is soo good, breaking the fourth wall should be done more!
It's really wonderful film! I would like to see a continuation of the story!

When exactly is it broken I am unable to find
@Parul Singh The 4th wall is broken whenever a character in the film interacts with the audience.
@@watchfulsparrow yeah but in this film how did they interact I'm confused
everything about this is so beautifully done! i'm looking forward to your future projects :)

Oh no! Same 😭
Never watched one of your videos before, until this one. Very well done, great work!
