A Silent Symphony by Vinoth Varatharajan

After taking a dive into depression, still in there…am I? I don’t know…

Anyways, this very short film is made possible thanks TO MY depression/slash fucked up mental state that I am in till today (Oct-23-2010). I shot most of the footage at night. I could not sleep, again till this day.

Why? Personal. Let’s just say, a priceless possession of mine got snatched away.

Do I need to start a club inspired by Chuck Palahniuk?

My nights are simple. Go out in the cold, shoot, coffee, tea, edit, sleep for 2 hours, wake up and go to work. Repeat.

However, after completing this very short film, for some reason, I can’t keep up while trying to write this post…

Am I cured?

I see the world in black and white.

Bus ride. Elevator. Buildings. Isolation. Fuck friend, who really fucks with passion, then go for a ride to shoot more footage.

I have no explanation for this short film other than, I have chosen the footage with the approval of my mental state. Simple as that.

Got questions? Shoot ‘em away, I’ll try to answer them all.

Colorful days are yet to come…by then, who knows, I may project an other one and this time you might have to buy a ticket.

GOOD NIGHT!
