A wonderfully surreal short by Los Angeles-based filmmaker Albert Choi. Taking a break from commercial work to recharge and explore a passion project based around the idea of finding ‘true north,’ Choi explains:
“I was interested in a layered story — shaping a compelling narrative where it’s about what you eliminate as much as what you show. I find that it’s better to have questions than answers you can’t question.”
