Only Actors

By Cole Mandras with 6.6

romance · Short Films · english

The story of ‘Only Actors’ is one of subjective truths, of pain and heartache, but also of inspiration and sacrificing others at the altar of creativity.

Our first introduction to the world is marked by a sense of theatricality in its setting and approach. Two lovers, John and Maurice, remain confined to the same space, exiting and re-entering, while presenting their emotional tumults to the viewer.

These elements make the final result succeed at conveying its intentions with lucidity.
