This short is about facing the unknown and contradictory information that was emerging during the first bewildering months of COVID-19. It's about the fear that something is coming to snatch away everything that we care about.
Ryan and Daniel began this video project as an exploration of fear. Then oddly enough, COVID-19 began its way across the world and the narrative shifted to being as Daniel puts it "an embodiment of the unseen element of the idea of fear."
