re:attachment
re:attachment is my last major short film, released back in 2022. Dealing with themes of childhood trauma, dissociation, anxiety, infatuation, violence, and sexual abuse my goal with this film was to bring people a step closer into understanding higher dimensions of reality in ourselves and understanding the true horrors that trauma inflicts upon its victims… and the process that takes place inside ourselves in the aftermath as a result.
Manic Man and Dona Nobis Pacem serve as proof of concepts for an expanded version of this story that has more time to develop and dissect its heavy themes.
Trauma. Dissociation. Integration.
re:attachment is available to watch now.
What ultimately began as an honest look into my own anxiety and trying to form it into a paranoid thriller, turned to a route much more inward; diving into the nature of why young men develop so much anxiety and dissociation.
The stems of trauma and how to integrate back into a more regulated and connected life.
