spaceman: a short narrative film
Filming will begin early 2013 in Woodstock, NY.
Spaceman is a highly visual short film, currently in pre-production, that takes place on a planet exactly the same as earth—the only difference is that they speak in a foreign gibberish. The film follows a young boy who lives in the heavily wooded cabin with his self-absorbed, bickering parents. Alone, the boy constantly finds comfort within his own imagination.
The film starts when one day the boy is playing with his toy spaceman and an actual spaceman wonders through forest—to his house. It is unclear whether or not the boy conjured up the spaceman, but may suggest that the story takes place from beginning to end in the boy's imaginary world - where adults literally speak in another language and he can bring a spaceman to life.
