This was my final video after three months in Cuba. After writing about 15 versions of my original script, one of the actresses left unannounced on a raft for Miami, then another actor was hired to perform for a festival across the island. This, along with my extreme procrastination, left me with about 48 hours to make something. So, I trashed the original idea and went with this one.
This short video profiles a day in the life (with a few minor alterations) of Nelson Rodriguez, a Cuban film editor who was also my tutor. It plays on the idea of how memory is in a way like film. We don't remember our days or weeks or years as one constant stream of events, but rather as certain moments spliced together like the shots and scenes that make up a movie.
