‘Phriend’ is an endearing story about isolation, loneliness and the eventual, unexpected path on which one finally finds a friend. With only his camera as a constant, the protagonist moves from one silent corner of his life to another, looking for companionship, but only meeting rejection at every turn. <br><br>

The visuals of the film are marked by a corresponding silence in its muted pastels and neutrals. The approach remains consistent across the different elements of the storytelling. At the end of it all awaits a lovely message about friendship, hesitation and the desire to connect with one another despite obstacles, internal or external, that stand in one’s path. 

<br><br>Consequently, when the conclusion is achieved, the film leaves you with a sweet warmth in the pit of your stomach. The result is an honest endeavour that offers a glimpse into a visual and emotional approach. It is a welcome prospect to see more of it in subsequent projects.
