ReMoved - On foster kids

Chanced upon this fantastic video, shot in the perspective of a foster kid. The lines in this video are viciously potent and pack an impact-ful punch.

Here are some of the lines from the video that I felt was really powerful (some paraphrased)...

"Sometimes someone hurts you so bad, that it stops hurting at all. Until someone makes you feel again, and then it all comes back; every word, every hurt, every moment."

"Even if you asked, even if you listened, you do not really hear or see or feel. You don't remember my story. You haven't walked my path. You haven't seen what I've seen."

"I am unseen, unheard, unwanted. That is what I am. If even I am anything."

I don't know about you, but when I heard those emotion-riddled words being enunciated by Abby White (Zoe Locke in film), I just went "Wow, I can totally feel your sadness and rejection."

Beyond being beautifully and intricately scripted, the videography is also great - complete with slow-mo moments and blurred shots.

Lastly, this short film has an awesome melancholic soundtrack! The sad, hollow, slow-moving, despondent tune really amplifies the diction in the video.

Yup, enough advertising...LOL...here's the goods...
