Modern Love Reimagined
Our short fiction film explores love in the digital age, where marriage rates decline while dating apps and individualism reshape relationships. Today's young adults navigate a world of instant gratification; from rapid deliveries to lightning-fast connections on Tinder, Bumble, and Grindr.
With career ambitions taking priority and experimental relationships replacing traditional commitment, we follow characters through this complex landscape. At its heart, our film asks: how much of yourself would you sacrifice to keep someone you love?
