DEATH IN HER ARMS has been my dream film for nearly five years. My great grandmother unfortunately passed away on my fourteenth birthday, and I remember vividly attending the funeral angry, depressed, longing for a second chance to hear her voice, while my other family members were rejoicing. I was perplexed on how what I saw as a tragic end, others saw as a beautiful beginning, and that sparked the conceptualization of this story.
For many years, I've used the thriller/horror sphere as a therapeutic way of confronting my personal traumas and fears, and DEATH IN HER ARMS is no exception. One of my biggest fears is losing loved ones without getting a proper farewell, and I needed to see a film where characters that suffer loss get a cathartic second chance at saying goodbye.
This short film serves as a glimpse into a much larger story we want to tell one day. Unfortunately, loss is inevitable for all of us, and there's no proper way to cope with grief. But one thing my great grandmother's passing taught me is sometimes the moments that feel the darkest can actually become the most beautiful.
Which is why I want to take you on the experience of DEATH IN HER ARMS, a chilling, mind-bending, emotionally intense ride with a profound message fourteen-year-old me needed to hear: Death is NOT the end.
