THE ROOMMATES
Short film, 10mins
The Roommates is about two roommates who share an apartment in Brooklyn. The main concept of the film lies on the emotional changes and responses between the two who actually represent differences in male and female psychological status. The French guy in his early 30s; a musician stays in the apartment as a visitor with the Korean girl; a freelancer designer. Through careful observations, the guy slowly develops his interest in the girl. Interestingly, the girl’s major concern is ‘herself’ not any relationships with anyone meanwhile the guy’s emotional changes are purely based on the girl’s reaction.
