In the current pandemic, the number of new films being made has dropped dramatically, so the production team challenged themselves to produce an eight-story omnibus film in the record time of five months. To maintain safety, the stories revolve mostly around only two characters and the crew was kept to the bare minimum. A boy meets his girlfriend's father for the first time. Visiting a hospitalized high school classmate. The last drink between a failed entertainer and his manager. Combat that ends up in a rap battle. A conversation between sisters at their mother's funeral. An encounter between two random time travelers. Each story was created around a single situation and lasted no longer than 15 minutes while spanning several genres, from comedy and drama to romance and science fiction. This project, in its unique production style and film quality, shows the possibility of a new style of media in what we now call the new normal. (Source: Free Stone Productions)
