Since the coronavirus pandemic started, there have been many turns of phrase that have been repeated ad nasueum. One of those is the well-intentioned (or is it?) phrase "We Are All In This Together." I decided to look at those words and think about things a bit more intimately, changing it to "We Are In This Together." These stories are about partnerships: marriage, significant others, and the like. As with the short film block about families, you will see that some films will address this phrase with irony, and others will address it with sincerity. All of them use human bonds as the center of either anxiety or hope.
While grieving the unexpected loss of his girlfriend, a man receives a chilling call. It's her.
Director: ARIA JACKSON is a Los Angeles based director, writer, and photographer. A 2017 graduate of the Cinema and Television Arts program at CSUN, Aria has written, directed, and produced three independent short films, while also maintaining a career in television production and branding. Her recent credits include creative photography and videography for Case Logistics Inc., a multinational firm; post and content production for Outpost Media; assistant directing and script supervising for DreamWorks Animation, and much more.
