Statement
Knowing so many young girls who have been victims of "frenemies" (and experiencing it myself as both a child and an adult), I wanted to capture the isolation and anguish such behavior can inspire. The bright colors of the FMC's house is a juxtaposition to the carnage we see on the screen, and the silence of the actors attempts to capture the isolation and loneliness someone may feel when they are ostracized.
This short features three young women, each of them making their film debuts after working for years on stage.
