Short films to make you LOL﻿

A summer day in Brooklyn brings strangers to the same area of a bustling park. However, they don’t realize that, other than their proximity to one another, they also share similar internal and external conflicts that are displayed by weaving through their conversations. Ranging from a first date, to disgruntled tech workers, to a relationship on the rocks, these individuals’ disparate experiences are connected through the universal act of perceiving one another: "people watching."
