  • that was the scariest thing I've ever seen in my entire life.

  • lol Jumper?

  • No doubt - great!

  • Why is it my favorite love 'movies' are coming from FutureShorts? O.O <3

    Could someone direct Hollywood to this channel please?

  • I hope she finds her way. They seem so happy together.

  • Loved the ending! and she is so beautiful!!

  • Really interesting and artistic and creative and so well done!

  • she's so cute when she's crying...

  • OMG...i shocked...!!! @08:58

  • the people are all in her mind, they are her doubts, & sadly for many, they are often worth listening to... i love this film!

  • fuck this rubbish

  • This was good

  • @lahgazi I rather think its because she has two faces, the one who is willing to trust in new love and the betrayed, hurt one, who isn't able to trust in something new.

  • great film!

    TaylorMade Films.

  • 7:22 walk of shame

  • O_o what:?

  • ross scott ripoff

  • hollywood effected esben mind.

  • nice box

  • It's about her trying to fight off all those around her, who think they know what's best for her. And cos of that she ends up fighting her own doubts which are consequently brought on by others. When she returns to him at the end and presses the doorbell and the crowd are sucked into the sky it's her overpowered them all. Then the noise of the mob once she's inside are just like her doubting thoughts. Once she hugs him and the vaporise to running off, it shows they both had the same problem.

  • @ChrisOfTheInternets I think it's more a visual metaphor saying that her doubts disappeared once she's in his arms.

  • tl;dw

  • ... everything I believed shattered... and I have been going in a rage against what I used to believe, what I used to feel... Fearing of the future, of the dreams that may come...

    and now I see this... made me cry, for hope... and now I know, no one will ever be alone if they just believe... as I realize that I have a lot of friends... that want to pick me up from the slums... and see me up again...

  • ... i gotta tell you... This just changedmy ife right now... I used to have this girl... and I dared to love like never before, she was my loved pasion, she had everything... and I showed her new worlds... until one day... she just decides to tell me... "I need space & time" and so I did, gave her waht she wanted... longing for her to come back... but she just said that to date a divirced guy. Needless to say, when I found out... my whole world crummbled...

  • That was pretty cool. The old guy.....Im wondering if hes her father/family figure, him being hit by the car, maybe hes actually dead But she is still battling to do with her freedom as a young woman by herself. When she pushes him away (i would to HEs creepy, but awesome) She is choosing to reject some might say rebel, or others might say she did what she should. Either way she made the choice to chase a dream which may or may not go the way she wants to. --Oh yeah She was BEautiful. XD

  • can someone explain to me what happened. 

  • wish i was in love

  • @lahgazi You see in people a mirror of ourselves. We fall in love with ourselves. We experience the world through our eyes, but in an infinite version of ourselves. There is no separation, We are all One. There is only Unity.

  • @astikel thanks neat way of putting it

  • All through this amazing short, 'Lunik - Fall' was playing in my head. Lx

  • Its non-linear narrative, makes you think. The 'magical realism' almost touches the heart with its shocks and wonders. The ending is beautifully devised and crafted.

    Watch some of our own shorts on youtube channel ||| mypixelstory |||

    tag along with indie spirit !

  • i'm confused. anyone care to explain? i feel stupid

  • definitivamente amar implica correr muchos riesgos y creo q el reto mas importante es poder llegar uno mismo a olvidarse de sus temores y dudas para poder entregarse a la otra persona de verdad. Liv tenía que aprender a sobreponerse a sus enfrentamientos interiores para poder ser liberarse. lo que sí no me pareció bien del todo es que si es amor real no entiendo porque el corto lo llega casi a graficar como un one night stand.

  • @krlasmf pero ya habían salido antes porque él le habló al principio y le dijo que se había divertido mucho, que le gustaría volver a salir y por eso se volvieron a ver

  • awesome short :-)

  • how come I can't find the song "I Need You" by Kira and the Kindred Spirits ANYWHERE??!! help!

  • Besides "Apricot", this is the best movie in Futureshorts, really amazing, and this have a special meaning for me aswell.

  • @rinotz7 Here here, Apricots was flipping out of this world :D

  • The heavy baggage from previous failed loves are chained to us until we met a love who is equally as freed from the fear of another failed attempt at finding that elusive lifemate.

  • DO NOT THUMBS UP Comments that have spoilers ! :|

    Spoils it for the rest

  • @RAHULK1812 Sorry D:

  • @RebornMB not your fault. I would've commented too. But people thumbs up it and it appears at the top. not their fault either. But, we should all be careful in future :)

  • That was just lovely, and such a perfect commentary on fears.

  • Great Short! Loved it

  • I first read the comment about the guy being hit by a car, so I lower the volume of my speakers so I won't be surprised when I watch that scene. But still it scared the shit out of me. :(

  • Impressive, stunning, breathtaking. One of the best shorts I've ever seen. The storytelling, the actors (she is so beautiful), the camera and the effects, everything is so close to perfection. Thanks for this unbelievably emotional visualization of the conflicts most people have to face more than once in their life.

  • Polanski lives. Great dialogue, high production values and some extraordinary special effects. but too black for my taste or perhaps it is that I'm missing an aposite social resonance. cf 'Tickets', for example.

  • That was so good. Really familiar situation to so many people. One of the best films that has been up in a while. :)

  • very impressive

  • people should take their time to watch this.

    it's amazing how impressive the story is told.

    I was kind of shocked when the man came across the corner!

    The images they used are pretty intelligent, too. And I think many people know situations like that. When you're not sure about what's right and what's maybe worng.

  • People = Doubts

    Right?

  • awesome. It's just like Denmark. what a stylish furnitures and peoples......

  • Awesome! Unique!

  • Man what a metaphoric type of movie. This video gets a thumb up

  • I never had ANY of those people around me when I was in Love. But as soon as She left me for another man because he was 'Financially' more supportive, I was over Crowded with Ugly people.

    It's not the Sex, the laughter or even the youth I miss... But the Closeness that I don't even have with myself now that I keep having nightmares about.

    But so many people FEAR Being on their own lately, that that in itself will make them stay.

    But I'd rather be on my own than to partner out of Fear.

  • @therealKINDLE hey... whatever happened to you, you deserve better than a materialistic girl in your life. good luck. life is a journey, and she was just passing through yours, so that now you can see more clearly what is you love about your life. and what is you are going to fight for. so, go! fight for the ones you love! and you'll be happy and close to people again.

  • Comment removed

  • @therealKINDLE man that's beautiful :,) and that's coming from someone who listens to heavy metal :D I had to headbutt the wall to regain my masculinity

  • Respond to this video...That was, a lack of a better word, AMAZING. That was the most... Gosh I can't even find the words to describe how freakin awesome this short was

  • I can't even say the right adjective to describe this. -_-

  • que genial estuvo, me encantó :D

  • words fail me. just amazing.

  • Another FutureLong. Pretty good though.

  • shared. Wow.

  • I ALMOST CHOKED ON MY NOODLES WIN THAT GUY GOT HIT BY THE CAR lol... it was really good though..... so sharing

  • Beautiful and metaphoric

  • Straight to my favorites :)

  • THANK GOD it's not another music video! Well done.

  • muito bom !!! parabéns

  • Wow, excellent short.

    

  • Second date and they're already in bed? I can't even comprehend that.

  • Oh my god when that guy got hit with the car I nearly jumped back too far and hit my head on the wall.

  • I'm at the 3:30 mark; I paused; this is so beautiful I don't want it to finish!

  • such a lovely girl

  • can anyone explain to me what it meant when she woke up and was seeing herself? the mirror of herself?

  • @lahgazi perhaps she saw herself in him, recognized herself as being happy... or maybe one of his walls is a mirror...

  • @lahgazi ... i THINK, it mean's she's her own little box. and that because she was smiling at herself it meant she had a good experience :/? :D

  • @lahgazi

    Liv wants to fall in love. She longs to have another person in her life, but her head is filled with doubts and anxiety.

    This is what the Director wrote for the description of the short film, that scene represents her both sides as explained she wants to fall in love but her head is filled with doubts and anxiety.

    In the mirror there was one happy Liv and one sad Liv.

  • @lahgazi i think she saw herself happy at last,and that was what mattered,not how the others saw her

  • @lahgazi Try thinking of it for yourself. If you did and found nothing, try again; you hadn't thought hard and long enough before. I know you have the patience. You watched an eighteen minute "short". If everyone told you the answers you'd get nowhere. This was designed to make you think. I'd like to hand you the answer, but it just isn't that simple. My answer will be different from yours.

  • @YurtLover Yes, i did think of that myself when i wrote the question, so thanks for the encouragement. the only problem was I really had no idea what the freakin hell this short was about, i relly shoulda written: what was this movie about? but was too embarrassed to admit i didnt get a thing.... THEN i read the description so now i understand more... im just getting into these type of films, so im kinda struggling to see meaning, just needed a little help is all

  • @YurtLover but thanks anyway! :)

  • @lahgazi probably her dream, and in it she was smiling at herself resembling happiness from every side of her.

  • @lahgazi probably it was 'her other half', in that bed, next to him she felt complete again or found herself as a whole again.

  • @lahgazi nah it means she sees herself in the box. the box is made of what looks like mirrors and she really wants to be special enough to him to make it into the mirror box.

  • @lahgazi it was representative of her emotional state in relation to love and sexuality. The act of love, in this case, is simply a reflection of her vanity.

  • Super!

  • well.....meh

  • Love it. A very strong representation of thoughts.

  • Bravo Bravo, magnifico. This was amazing.  The message was well conveyed and the presentation was fantastic.

  • tl;dr girls are crazy

  • Lorte film,.

  • ¿Alguien puede agregar subtitulos en español? :)

  • @jeyfree ?what¿

  • A Perfect Short Movie! Perfectly shows fears, doubts, worries, and everything that makes one run away from love.....

    Hats off the the director! The best of Future Shorts, must say!

  • brilliant! never let your fears stop you

  • Comment removed

  • Wow. i didnt get it at all... untill i red firats post:)

  • Holy crud that scared me @ 8:58

    Great short by the way.

  • did anyone else jump when that old man was hit by the car?

    on a serious note, this was beautifully written and the ending was just perfect and so well thought-out. it's been a while since i've enjoyed a futureshort as much as i enjoyed this one.

  • That was fucking beautiful. Eerily portrayed, extremely well written, expertly acted. I'm blown away. Bravo.

  • This is the first futureshorts film that has peaked my interest in a good while. Good Job.

    That box of good experiences thing sounds amazing aswell I'm going to use that.

  • im lost -.-

  • love how this short has the same psychothriller move to it like in Black Swan..the ending is top notch! finding solace together which takes both of them out of the troubles in life they are facing..being able to run away from it all..great!

  • Oh, Dronningens Tværgade nummer 8 :) I used to work there :)

  • Thank you very much for this film .....stunning!

  • Really cool and creepy...

  • Really nice. I enjoyed watching.

  • Very good short

  • Thumbs up up up! Wonderfully true in depicting love & fear, being insecure & having faith. Thank you so much! P

  • @JAN2O1O I think he wrote the note because being with her was an experience he wanted to remember for the rest of his life, so that even if things didn't work out in between them, he could still have that good memory and hold on to it.

  • This was the best short film I've seen in a really, really long time.

  • Ha, the guy got hit by the car

  • Great, great great short film! Fantastic directing/writing/acting and such a creative take on the subject! Great to know it was shot before inception because the two share similar portrayals of our subconsciousness

  • 0:00 i think my phone is vibreting

  • Thanks for explaining it! because I was completely lost.

  • I'm doing that thing he said about good experiences.

  • For me there were so many questions I had as the movie progressed that I couldn't get past the idea that he killed her and this was a purgatory hind sight thing. I didn't know what the genre was and felt I was handed 362 pages of paper each with the letter "A" on them and told to imagine a story about, a...

  • How come this channel doesn't have more views?!

  • Am i the only one that has ever wondered how they get from sitting in a couch to fucking in bed?

  • @MrMistery101 Transitions are mysterious like that D:

  • @MrMistery101 lol he probably put roofies in her drink

  • Can i meet this director please this movie was super good. i love the story and directing, style and everything.

  • wow she was HOT!

  • This is so true!!! amazing film

  • Bitch got PROBLEMS!

  • that was crazy!!! and AMAZING... i wish i have someone to tell me when i'm making a bad decision

  • Christian is fit!

  • Wow, I'm speechless! Amazing filming, acting and editing!

  • Is this what every girl goes through when starting a new relationship? Haha

  • @1BigPopa2 no, some people are just weird like that !

    lol maybe she shouldn't have slept with him after just the first date ...that wasn't a date

  • Wow! This short was very well done conceptually in using other "actual" people to represent her own internal doubts regarding her new relationship with him.

  • very good movie, make you thinking more about...

    regards

    DAN

  • Brilliant.

  • Amazing! Thanks for posting.

  • I wonder if men got the same anxieties when it comes to their relationships.

  • @PouresMaggie They do.

  • @PouresMaggie Yeah :-/ everyone does, guess it's just how we (as in all people) try to keep our selves from getting hurt.

  • FUCK! I JUMPED OUT OF MY SEAT WHEN THAT GUY GOT BODIED BY THAT CAR!

  • @RebornMB

  • didnt really got what the whole video's message is . i dk what it meant really . but its still a futureshorts video . so its good :] .

  • That was amazing. i feel bad that 5 years pass till this kind of work is published.

  • A bit heavy handed, but I enjoyed the experience. Easy to share in her agony.

  • Kind of simplistic in my opinion. I understand that shorts don't usually have the time to develop their characters but this is too basic. Pretty girl, ex ran away with best friend, now scared, faces fears for this new awesome, sensible and charming boy friend. It had that: you can find better line that was touching but besides that i guess it falls short.

  • I'm hungry... *Buffering*

  • I love your films!

  • Comment removed

  • Wow! awesome!

  • too long. didn't watch. sorry.

  • @polismf Don't say sorry to us. Say it to yourself! ;-)

  • @WacknRegular ok, but is it worth watching? Cause 18 min on youtube is kinda much for my liking

  • @polismf I would say so. But i am a shortfilm lover, i dunno about you

  • @polismf Like YOU've got anything better to do... Just watch it for chrissake

  • @rrlloo1 lol. good point

  • @rrlloo1 Also (just wanted to add that I smoke weed before deciding to watch this) IT Was the best thing I watched in a while! I mean just put this shit to hollywood!

  • SPOILER - DONT READ BEFORE WATCHING THE VIDEO.

    Yes, those people outside are her doubts and anxiety. They (herself actually) try to drive her away from that guy. She pulls through and goes to him again. The ending is for the audience to make. Someone rings the guys door (another girl maybe?) and you can hear the people outside again (her anxiety is rising up again). Or maybe it's just some delivery?

  • @11Firat58 thank you .. now i understood this really great shortfilm :)

  • @11Firat58

    thanks for that, on my one I didnt got it

  • @11Firat58 I think perhaps, the male character as well has the same anxieties as her, he has a box where he keeps slips of his past bad experiences, maybe bad experiences of ex-girlfriends. So, it makes sense for conclusion that they both hear the same sounds, both are running away together. What I don't understand is why he wrote another note to put into the box while the girl went out to get breakfast.. was his mind telling him that it probably was just a one night stand?

  • @JAN2O1O The box is where he puts notes of "good experiences." When he has a bad experience he reads the good ones to cheer him up. So he wrote a note when the girl went to breakfast cause his "date" with her was a good experience.

  • @11Firat58

    Her doubts came back, until they embraced, then all her doubts disappeared (as they both did), reappearing on a road, signifying the start of their journey through life together.

  • @11Firat58 my take on the last door bell ring would be "his" anxiety decides to visit. He's worried too if she doesn't feels the same way in return. As the voice grew louder, their anxiety grew collectively together, worried where would this all go. But in the end they gave it a try, disappear away from the drowning voices and running away together; to deal with their anxieties together.

  • @11Firat58 And then they both decide "Fuck It!" and continue the relationship even if they both have the same doubts about it and they run away and have fun basically?

  • Hey it's Ronan Keeting :D

  • How the fuck did he survive that crash?

  • @BassLlne

    Here's a hint: he's not real!

  • @AtheistTower ah of course.. i forgot

  • seemed so familiar that it almost scared me..

  • im so confused right now ?

  • SPOILER-

    -

    -

    -

    I didn't follow entirely, the people were the representations of her doubts, right?

  • @Ymgarl Yes, i think so :)
