Ritual (short film)

Ritual (short film)

Film Bio:
An eye opening, true to life tale showing the difficulties experienced in modern day relationships. Basic neglect of a partner for a cellphone and the crippling effects it can have on human interaction.

We follow the routine of a young man set out to achieve his daily tasks. While constantly glued to his mobile phone and neglecting his partner. His partner (a young woman) doing her best to tolerate his rude behaviour is beginning to run out of patience.

Reasons:
I made this film as an art final in high school (The National School of the Arts), It was made as part of the multi-media curriculum.
I wanted to bring my film passion into the art class, it was a fun experience for me. This was my last high school film.  (Term 4 of Grade 12)
