Hi! We made a new short film and worked very hard on it. =) If you can, please watch it and comment! ^_^ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V9m412NXpYE Many thanks! I know Basil would be the last place to ask for opinions but I just love the comments, because even if there are trolls it builds me up. =) Edit: Some still don't understand the story so I'll just post up a quick summary =) Misunderstanding can ruin a person, or it can build into something special. His best friend is with the girl he likes, but what he doesn't know is that he is trying to let her go for the sake of their friendship. He is misunderstood and swore to him that he will never see him again. Years passed and an old memory box filled with memories pops open while looking for his job application. He finds an address behind the photo and rushes to the nearest flight determined to give his late apologies for what happened years back. He then finds out he doesn't live there anymore and then he hears a noise and races towards it to find his once old friend being pinned to the fence by a guy trying to get his money because in reality he is homeless and in debt with the loan sharks. He scares the guy away and then he talks about how he has the other piece of the necklace and only his friend back then was the only one who had the other piece. It was a one of a kind necklace. They hung out with each other and developed a sort of friendship in between that time period. Weeks later, back at the house, he hears a knock on the door and gets the door and the loan shark comes back and yells at him like "why are you trying to hide, huh?" His friend sees the glass botttle and smacks it on his head and pulls him out. They run to the backyard to get away and later the guy wearing the yang (white) necklace looks back to see him aiming at the other guy (wearing black necklace) and he saves him. As he is pleading his last words, he tells him that he actually killed his friend not too long ago and it was all a misunderstanding and he used him to help pay for his debt and have a roof to live under and hide from the loan sharks. He saved him because in that time period he was using him, he actually developed a friendship between each other and couldn't let him suffer for what he has done. Later, he shows up at his old friends grave who was killed by the "fake" guy. I hope this all makes sense, this movie was suppose to make you "interpret" what you think happened =) Hope you liked it! It took me a few weeks to think of the script. and about a month of hard work to film this. Thanks again! You guys are great!

there are 4 main people in the movie i think. guy one: he's the main character you see at the beginning. guy two: thats his brother. the guy in the picture. guy three: he's the guy holding up a knife to guy 2 and coming in the house pointing a gun at guy 2. guy four: he's the kid in the white shirt at the end that was shot by guy 2. the thing is, it all started when guy 2 robbed a store. guy 4 saw what happened, and was killed because he was a witness. guy 2 then saw his tao necklace or w/e, i dont know what their called. they symbolize trust and harmony is all i know (i think?). guy 1 then went to see his brother and guy 3 was trying to kill guy 2 because he killed his brother, which was guy 4. guy 2 ended up being killed. now all thats left is guy 1 and guy 3. it was an amazing plot and they way you put it. you should put this on your resume, its that good.

So guy 2 is the bad guy, and guy 1 is trying to save guy 2 from guy 3. But guy 3 is after guy 2 because guy 2 killed guy 3's brother, who is guy 4. I think.

No. I think its liek this: Guy 1: The kid that says the line in the picture, and the main character. Guy 2: The other guy in the picture, AND the guy in the white shirt that gets killed in the flashback. Guy 1 and 2 WERE best friends. Guy 3: The guy that was found and saved by guy 1. He killed Guy 2, the REAL friend Guy 1 is looking for. Guy 4: He's the one hunting down Guy 3 with the knife and gun and stuff. Seems they have something against each other. Hmm. This is what i think. Guy 1, now grown up, going to that job interview. He gets the application and comes across a memory box with the photo of him and his friend and remembers the times theyve had together. They fought and probably stopped talking to each other, but now Guy 1 regrets ever having that fight and wants to find Guy 2 again. Guy 1 travels to the address to find Guy 2 but finds out Guy 2 doesn't live there anymore. When he leaves the place he finds Guy 3 being attacked. He saves guy 3 and sees guy 3 is wearing the same necklace as the guy He's looking for. Guy 1 thinks Guy 3 is Guy 2 xD Guy 3 goes along with it i guess and takes advantage of guy 1. In the end guy 3 is found at that house and is gets attacked. Guy 4 is about to shoot guy 3, but guy 1 comes in to save him and guy 1 and guy 3 run off together. Guy 3 looks back as hes running and sees Guy 4 aiming and ready to shoot. Guy 3 pushed guy 1 off to save him and took the shot for guy 1. Guy 4 runs off like a wuss. Guy 1 comes and cries and guy 3 finally with his last breath tells guy 1 that he's not guy 2. Then guy 3 proceeds and tells him that he stole the necklace from guy 2 after killing him, that's where he got the necklace from. Guy 3 tells guy 1 he regrets killing someone innocent and then using that necklace to take advantage of guy 1, BUT guy 1 asks him if hes sure because the two have built a new friendship from such accident. In the end i think he visits guy 2's grave o.0 Yeah i didn't see the twist until i watched it with my friends and they told me.

Haha you guys are suppose to 'Interpret' what you think happened. But a hint is that the guy with the white necklace (yang) when he saw him getting held up by the fence was a guy trying to get his money because he was in a huge debt. You figure the rest haha
