Love Goes Short Film

ABOUT THIS FILM

'Love Goes' is a 12 minute drama short film. It follows Chloe and Ethan over the span of one night when they see each other for the first time post break up. They must decide if nostalgia should be enough to bring them back together or if their chapter closes with the sunrise.

At the heart of this film lies the theme of acceptance, exploring young love, human connection, and the impact of lost friendships stemming from heartbreak. We aim to illustrate the universal experience of love ending when it simply isn’t meant to be. Our goal is to create a story that resonates deeply, connecting with viewers on a personal level through its authenticity.

We also aspire to deliver a visually stunning cinematic experience that showcases our skills as filmmakers. By capturing the beauty and artistry of our craft, we hope to captivate the audience fully.

Filming in Wellington provides the perfect backdrop for our narrative. The city’s unique charm and vibrant energy will enhance our story, allowing us to highlight its captivating atmosphere.
