So as I look thru the comment section I see a lot of people praising this short film if that's what you want to call it. The only problem is it is so short that you are not getting any substance of what the movie is truly about! Now everyone is praising the riders and praising the acting but I'm not understanding! When you're viewing a short film for it to keep you intrigued you usually know what it's about! And this was greatly lacking any context the girl was missing and that's all you really know! You have no idea if anything that she heard or anything that she experienced during that time is even real! And you have no idea what happens at all! Maybe if it was made into a long film then we would be able to go into all of that but even still a short film should give you some type of substance to what you're watching!

I'm having a tough time with finding the lyrics to the song that plays at the beginning and end of the film if anyone wants to help out! Its called Purple Morning by Freya Berkhout and Danny Keig:
Walking the road on that purple morning
To ease my troubled mind
the ground I walked on
Sudden as a line
Stumble until the dive inside
Where millions before me died and dried
I wander through this murky mood
Through nature’s essence and my solitude
Dripping I see the snakes of roots and tangle
Softening my fall
Lying among the leaves my body wrangles
As trees begin to call
Stumble until the dive inside
Where millions before me died and dried
I wander through this murky mood
Through nature’s essence and my solitude

To me this is really a very good representation of what severe anxiety and panic disorder is like. It’s never clearly showing that any of the things she heard on her radio ever came to pass. No matter what she does it’s wrong and it’s going to get her and no matter what she says she cannot get others to see what she’s seeing. In the end, she’s alone and anyone who tries to help her ends up lacking the patience needed to really help her out of this lonely place she’s in. Alone, scared, and unable or tired of even trying to tell others. Very well done!

Technically there is a episode from the twilight zone that the woman doesn't know that she's dead and and the radio says something about her being dead and she calls her mom and her mom was crying bc she thought it was a joke and hangs up and a man keeps driving around asking if she was going his a way.

Seems that she is stuck in purgatory and is having trouble accepting her fate and she is being told by devine power that she is dead over and over until she accepts her fate. The others are likely souls passing through and are either unaware that they've passed or have already accepted their fate.

Just walk on the outside of the road and hide behind a tree every time she sees a car going by. it will take time but eventually, she will make it. And break that walkman on the road. that would be pleasantly poetic.

Good job on this one.
There is a certain skill set for short films that is different for longer films and very distinct.
And this one had them. Including the unresolved ending that makes a good ending.

Reminds me of one of those movies where in the end she finds out she’s in hell and it runs on a loop for eternity. I really loved this. A little more depth and backstory would have been nice, though.

Better hope her Walkman doesn't run out of batteries, or she won't know what's coming. Really great short. Didn't leave me wanting in a bad way. Just wanting more is all.

Like how in the afterlife, you get to take the clothes with you that you wore when you died, along with any other gear you've got with you.

When you try to change the future you often just make the thing happen you were trying to prevent.

This is not SCI-FI but more like a TWILIGHT ZONE. Acting is so great! The concept is wonderful!
