April 2020, Los Angeles, California: The pandemic of the #COVID-19 virus outbreak has left not just the city, but the entire world at a stand still. Los Angeles became a ghost town during the pandemic, while my entire being was hidden behind the glass, deteriorating while diving into madness. I have been in isolation/quarantine since the beginnings of March- the effects on me Psychologically as well as Spiritually was not to be undermined and to be reflected. Me and a group of filmmaker friends decided to start an online film festival called THE COVID-19 INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL to showcase films on the theme of Corona Virus and its effect on our day to day life. Here is my film, my vignette, my reflection, during this surreal time.
The film was shot entirely on the iPhone using practical lighting.
thank you for watching.
