Description
“When Something Living Leaves” was originally a poem I wrote after my friend’s father died of an overdose the summer before 7th grade. I didn’t know what to say to him, so I wrote this poem and made this film instead. To tell you the truth, I never gave it to him because he’s not the kind of guy who would be receptive to it. I think he would be embarrassed instead of realizing that it’s good that I care. In an effort to turn pain into beauty, I turned my poem into a film. I hope it makes people feel not alone in their grief.
