Directors Notes: “A lonely man goes through the motions of his nightly routine,” explains director Xia Magnus. “The camera stalks him as he drifts in a Los Angeles nightscape. He searches for comfort, but is haunted by dreams – a mysterious woman, shadows, an empty beach. Noir-inspired imagery suggesting alienation, the feeling of being watched, and the eponymous fame.”
