Those who know me, know that I don't endorse just any film. That's why you should pay close attention here. You don't want to miss out.Chicago-based creative talent, Nem Perez, has released a teaser trailer and website for his upcoming short film Save Her. There has been a lot of talk about this film during it's production, and I have been eagerly awaiting it's release.
Here's what Perez has to say about his film (from interview on RubyHornet.com):
"To put it shortly: The story is about a girl trapped in her nightmare who's saved by her lover who emerges from his dream to rescue her.
The film has many other themes surrounding it as well, especially those concerning dream vs reality (and which state is worth living in most). None of the characters have names except for the main female role Maryam (played by Megan Lewis). Maryams side of the story takes place in her nightmare while the boys side (played by Alex Duarte) takes place in his dreamland. The main antagonist of the story is played by Monica Anelle, she lives in the boys dream and she is the woman he's been dreaming about since he was younger. I don't want to give away too much else since the project is still in development but that's the main synopsis."From what I've been seeing and hearing about Save Her, it has the feel of films by Lars Von Trier, Tarsem Singh, and early Darren Aronofsky. Personally, I love films like this. When filmmakers get abstract with their craft, it unlocks their full artistic ability. It gives them the chance to dig deep and really go all out artistically. This film has so much potential for being a visual treat with thrills, chills, and making the viewer think. The imagery, colors, use of gritty black and white and overall concept all have me at the edge of my seat to see this film.
Save Her is one fever dream I can't wait to experience.
