Filmmaker Statement

We all get lost in patterns sometimes, for some of us they can be totally consuming. I wanted to make a film about the feeling of being totally consumed by one thought. A thought that endlessly repeats, that spirals out of control until there’s nothing of you left. The light effect itself reflects this repetition, it is one singular beam duplicated and then stacked back in time. The light itself is real, no CGI was used in its creation. All the effects are captured in camera. The film was shot on 16mm on the Kimmeridge Ledges of the Jurassic coast in southern England.
