“Endless” is a love poem to youth where summers felt eternal and the season was filled with vivid colours and heightened emotions. It’s a telephone line to the past when I lived and loved adventurously, experienced deep pain but embraced the moment and had no concerns about what lay ahead.

Directors Vision for ‘Endless’

‘Endless’ is my homage to the past and inspired by my youth. A love poem to summers, which felt eternal as a kid. It’s a telephone line to a past version of myself who lived and loved adventurously, experienced great joy and deep pain, embraced the moment and had no worries about what lay ahead in the future. Over the past three years I’ve been struck with major life transitions in the midst of the pandemic. From supporting my partner during isolation dealing with the grief of her fathers passing, being a lifeline to my own father who’s health deteriorated in a short space of time with two major surgeries one after the other and then I unexpectedly became a father myself this past year to a magical baby girl. All mixed together with the rollercoaster ride of understanding and working through my childhood. It’s been a rite of passage into the reality of adulthood, ageing, death, birth and responsibility and while my youth can feel a veil away some days, it’s infact light years from where I find myself now. I don’t have a heap of early memories but the ones I do have, I recall in vivid colours and heightened emotions. I want to always remember that part of myself as it’s given me comfort during these challenging years and I think when you’re locked down for months on end with nowhere to go, nostalgia is the best escape.
