3rd Place for November 2010
Finally, my short film is live! (We couldn't stream it online until after festival submissions)...and here it is! Hope you enjoy! A short film about the brief connection between two people, alone at night and living with cancer. Grace and Joe long not to feel alone during this hard time, and so, on encountering one another, they search for a sense of solidarity by sharing what they have - or perhaps, (in Joe's case) what they wish they had; family.

This poignant short film is cleverly written, beautifuly filmed and acted. We can feel the heartache of all the characters, the husband who has to go home alone, the patient desperate to find his sons letter, Grace and the solitude of Joe . Exellent! Well done Elf !!

Wow guys, thanks for those comments - it has been a long time since I was able to chat to people about this piece! What's also interesting cat - is that you picked up on the husband's role too; he is very often forgotten (even by me, at times). I'm really glad you liked it! :)
