"Together and Better" - Experimental / Silent / Musical
TOGETHER AND BETTER was then made for the international FOUR POINTS FILM PROJECT competition. TOTAL RUNTIME again became a FINALIST, placing in the TOP 12 of 139 films from around the world.
​
The film was also selected by arthouse and music video circles, as well as traditional festivals, while garnering awards consideration. Much of its success was found overseas in Europe.
​
Everything, including music, was created from scratch over 1 long weekend.
