The inspiration behind this short film

 

My short film was inspired by a multiple award-winning short film called: TWO STRANGERS WHO MEET FIVE TIMES, the film was made by a British filmmaker, playwright, and internet entrepreneur Marcus Markou.

The director mentioned in one of his interviews that he created this short film to talk about what is happening in the world concerning: identity, and abuse at the till or in the bus queue just to show how pointless these conflicts are.

The film is based on human behavior and humanity according to my understanding, the movie shows two different characters Alistair and Samir, who kept on meeting in different situations of life from when they were kids till they became old. One has been very rude and the other pretty calm.

Firstly, I have been attracted by the title while I was searching for ideas concerning my short film (STRANGER, MEET, FIVE TIMES) those were the keywords that made me click on the video because they got me curious.​​​​
