Inspiration
Inspiration from Edward Hopper's Morning Sun. Edward Hopper belongs to a particular category of artist whose work appears sad but does not make us sad…perhaps because they allow us as viewers to witness an echo of our own griefs and disappointments, and thereby to feel less personally persecuted and beset by them. Morning Sun in particular, could be looked at as though Hopper was trying to highlight our isolation in the world. Light breaking through a window to illuminate a scene is definitely enough to fan that flame. But just like so many things in life, there are other ways to look at it. Just as though Morning Sun can represent loneliness, it can also represent optimism.
Synopsis
"A young man has another hard day, left with nowhere to go and no one to talk to, he settles for a random corner somewhere. There, he meets a mysterious dark figure who ushers him into the dark to meet the Shadows. This short film is intended to raise mental health awareness."

A word from the director
"I put a lot of heart and soul into this short film, if I was a bit hard on you during the process, I want to apologise, I am just very passionate about this subject. This specific subject doesn't personally affect me but I really wanted to spread awareness and try and get people to think about it more, especially in the times we are living in now. I do hope that this project is received well, everyone on every team has worked very hard."
