Anatomy of an Offer: A very short film
I’m also making a very short, non-narrative film. We shot on November 29 with the help of Zoe Kirk-Gushowaty and Zebnem Ozpeta. Thank you to everyone who donated their time and jumped in to help. In the editing, I will be looking for a close view of all of the crazy amounts of thinking and feeling that is going on in the tiny moments before an improviser jumps in.
