Solitude

September 19th at 3:30pm

Running 20 minutes, "Solitude" follows a lone protagonist who enters the woods and slowly realizes they are not alone. What follows is not a conventional chase, but a mounting sense of dread.

The story unfolds entirely through visual language and sound design, it can be experienced solely as a soundscape or purely visually.
