Dan is a sheepish victim of infatuation, and emotional

basket case. He meets Emma, a mysterious girl who

opens him up to new ideas. Unfortunately, she’s not here

to stay. Dan is forced to make a decision to leave with

Emma or stay here, stuck in his dead-end job and

monotonous daily life.

 

This film covers a plethora of topics that are quite

prevalent in our generation: love, technology,

depression, suicide, and heartbreak. The pacing of

this piece has been the hardest, yet most rewarding,

element of my position as editor. Making sure to get

the timing just right in order to maintain the overall

tone that Brendan–our director–envisioned has given me confidence in my skills for future projects. On top of that, being able to put ourselves in a position where we can sit back and envision the impact that this will have on viewers has been an especially interesting challenge. Understanding that this film can resonate with individuals who have experienced relationships similar to Dan and Emma made us want to work even harder to get this right.
