Nickel Creek - Doubting Thomas (Spec) video

This is a SPEC video I did for my directing reel.

It's amazing how contagious "doubting" really is...

Please leave feedback!

The song sounds like it's most likely religious.

TheRemyRadioShow chose to interpret it in another way. Like so many before have said, the video is about her lack of faith in men because of her abusive father (as you can tell at 0:51 where the man's holding a belt presumably to beat her). "Doubting Thomas" also has a double meaning. She is DOUBTING Thomas and she is A doubting Thomas. The video is simply a different interpretation. There's no crime in interpretation.STOP BASING IT. IT'S GREAT.

@TheRemyRadioShow I believe this song speaks to me as talking about "trust" Which I myself dont have much of.....for instance: a relationship I wanted to stay together forever didnt happen and I wanted it to so badly that I didnt care for anything else, but when it did fall apart my "trust" disappeared forever and I will never be able to trust anyone else,.....I constantly push myself away and there is always that fear there that something bad will be the outcome.....even when its not the case.

beautiful song, beautiful video.

This song speaks to the fact that the singer is going back and forth with his faith. He believes but is easily shaken by things in this world... he has the faith of a mustard seed....

I always thought of this song in terms of the stages of life pondered to it's end, wondering what really comes after. The story compares and contrasts the convinced and committed christian true believer with the uncomfortably sincere protagonist admitting to honest doubts. but the problem is he's stuck there, with questions he can't answer or resolve yet, but it's too late: he's already experienced too much and 'outgrew' his old childlike traditional christian faith, and is stuck at that stage

@TheRemyRadioShow The song is a general theme of loss of faith or rather the inability to trust outside of oneself because they can't trust in themselves. So the interpretation is as valid as anything in it's nature. While the song has it's religious overture of tone, it's general meaning is just as valid as whats featured in the video. She's unable to trust in love because she can't trust herself to love.

@georgiaboy27 I wanted the family and love that my parents held for me and when i couldnt find it...I gave up on it all together......even though there is love and hope for me to start over, I just run the other way......thank you for letting me post this.

This song has motivated me to renew my faith.
