I wanted to tell a weird, sad, funny story. I wanted to explore how life doesn’t care about what happens to you when you’re grieving, not really. The platitudes of all the side characters in our lives, and how brutal technology can feel in those moments. I wanted to make something that felt true, a weird fever dream but something we all felt as vaguely familiar.
