    This short film really touched me. There is no need for words to understand how they are bound to each other. It's bittersweet and realistic. A pice of art.
    So proud of all of you.

    This movie is so sweet, it made me think about me and my friend. I love her sm and i love spending time with her because I feel like she's the only person who understands me and likes me genuinely and she's just very special to me. But now she's paying more attention to one other girl and they seem to be getting along quite well, they laugh together in class in front of me and they have conversations and hangout without me. My friend held that girl's hand when she felt overwhelmed and stressed when she used to do that with me. I feel like I'm losing her. And this movie captured my feelings 💔

    The chances of this being seen are low, but this was so stunning. The music you chose really represents the highs and lows of Lily's emotions, and all of the angles and scenes of pure happiness and sadness are beautifully curated. I really hope this channel makes it really far. This was impressive.

    Watching this made me think of one of my close friends. She continued in public school while I transferred to private school. In the 3 years we spent at separate schools, she made many friends, had many boyfriends, was always involved in drama, and hardly made time for me. I made 3 close friends, never dated anyone, and stayed out of drama, I was always willing to drop everything to hang out with her. Now that I am back in public school with her, she is making more time for me, but when she walks away from me mid conversation to go talk to her other friends, she expects me not to get upset. Since starting at public school, I've made more friends, but still not nearly as many as her. She eventually stopped talking to me for a month, and any time I would see her at our shared after-school activities, she would say, "Sorry, ive been stressed with (insert drama here), I'll tell you about it later." She never told me. Since I brought it up to her, we have been texting and hanging out more, but we aren't as close as we once were. I debate sending her this mini movie to watch so then she can understand how I feel as the introverted friend

    This made all of our old memories swarm, and it hurts so much to know that she's never coming back. All of the the memories. Holding hands as we walked in the rain, her holding me as I cried, kissing her forehead as she went to sleep, everything. It's not coming back. Now I'm crying and wondering where I went wrong. I just miss her more than anything. I miss holding her in my arms as she closed her eyes and I played with her hair. I miss giving her gifts, and asking about her day. I miss the long ass midnight conversations on the phone. I miss her. She was my everything. I never expected her to leave. She said she loved me more than anything. I never wanted it to go away. I did everything I could to get her to stay. It's been so long and I still can't help but fall asleep with her on my mind.

    absolutely beautiful. i'm so glad my feed brought this short film to my attention! the emotions were so raw and human, and i love how it was no one's "fault" for the fight/friend break. It was just differences-in perspective, in personality, etc.-and that is so incredibly human! there's nuance to every situation, especially in a relationship like this. and it was really beautiful to see this interpretation. thanks so much for sharing!! 💜
