About this submission
Admit it, we've all dated a worm at some point.
"The Worm's-Eye View of the Bird" is based on the true story of how I made the difficult choice to leave behind my first love. Despite many years together, he refused to follow me to Los Angeles, and no longer aligned with my destiny and aspirations of becoming a filmmaker.
This short film is the culmination of years of processing difficult heartbreak — how the memories of people are like worms that stick in your brain, and how you know the other person is still watching you from a distance, even years after the split.
