Proof it’s not the camera, it’s the videographer.
Arguably one of the best shorts I’ve seen so far. Very open to interpretation if not an actual alien invasion but dealing with disease and loss of loved ones.
Really appreciate your comments, Niles.
Whoa!!!! Fantastic!
Shot on iPhone 8

Good. Grief. Utterly incredible writing, directing, cinematography, editing, VFX, all the things. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Too kind, Jackson. I'm glad it made an impression!
I agree, Jackson! It’s all of the things! pp
This might be the best submission MIFF has ever had.
I think @deejayforte would appreciate this...
Yeah. Absolutely agree with you👍
Thanks so much, Patrick!
@@VishalBhanushaliviz3rd Thanks so much for the kind words, Vishal.
Agreed.
The moment I figured out what was going on. 🤯 Excellent.
-1 years later, If you're still watching this you're a legend.
The plot, story, characters, themes, twists & audience grabbing turns in this film are all about.......shot on iPhone. Whoa!
Thank you so much!
This is why mobile filmmaking excites me. If done right, it can capture you just like any other camera.
Hey Pete, this is awesome, and I love how made use of the time. Invasion would be a great fit for Short of The Week and Film Shortage. I look forward to seeing more of your work. Cheers!
Wow loved this! Incredible work - I can really feel your vision. There's a softness to this throughout that I love - tone, music, scene composition. You really drew me into this world.
Wow. That's such nice feedback, Helena, thank you.
Love it! A sneaky curveball that puts everything into perspective. Beautiful! Featured on Film Shortage
Thank you, Folks! Much appreciated on the Film Shortage feature!
This is brilliant! It was the line about the smell of hospitals for me! 💯
Thanks so much, Paul! I appreciate your comment. I literally thought the other day that if I could change one thing, I might've left that line out. So, I'm so glad you like it!
Get this short film a Oscar!! Fantastic work love it
This was exceptional. Absolutely loved it. The music, narration, cinematography. Flawless.
I have only commented on just a few films but this one is excellent. Great talent, well shot, edited and audio additions are fantastic but most of all, creatively written. This is the perfect mix if you’re looking to model after something in terms of quality from script to screen. Great job!
This is a absolutely spectacular! Powerful, beautifully filmed, touching. Incredible work ❤️
Thank you guys, love your work!
AMAZING!!! Truly one of the best short films I’ve seen!!! Gave me all the feels. My grandpa was taken in 2013... Good luck tonight! #MIFF2020

Omg made me have a tear. Wow. Thank you for sharing your gift. Thank you .
Just seeing this on May 15, 2024. This is brilliantly conceived and executed- the idea, the effects and visuals, the performance both physical and vocal, and the timing of the reveal- not right away, but not right at the end either, with time for it to sink in to the viewer's mind. Excellent work.
Brilliant! Great idea, great story, great execution.
Tomasz Nowak Thanks so much, Tomasz!
