Feature: "All Things Fair — Memory Mosaic" (short film/documentary hybrid)
- Concept: An experimental short film that blends restored archival footage, verbatim interviews, and poetic visual montages to explore how small moral compromises ripple across a life — inspired by the 1995 film "All Things Fair" (theme of youthful transgression and memory).
- Format: 18–25 minute hybrid: 8–10 min dramatized re-enactments, 6–8 min archival/interview segments, 4–7 min abstract montage.
- Narrative arc: Present a single formative summer through three perspectives — the protagonist, an observer (teacher/parent), and the younger self — revealing mismatched memories that converge into a moral reckoning.
- Visual style: Washed 1990s film tones, 16mm grain, jump cuts between present-day interviews and past re-enactments; occasional text overlays of fragmented phrases (the garbled string as a visual motif).
- Sound: Sparse piano theme, field recordings, voiceover excerpts from interviews; diegetic 1990s pop in select scenes.
- Key scenes: classroom flirtation with consequences; late-night confession at a fairground; a present-day visit to the school where characters reconcile memory vs. guilt.
- Distribution hook: Festival circuit (short film and hybrid documentary categories) + targeted online release with an interactive microsite where viewers upload a short memory; the site stitches submissions into a community "mosaic" montage.
- Budget/crew snapshot: Minimal locations, small cast (3–6), director with documentary and fiction experience, editor skilled in montage; estimated microbudget $40K–$70K.
- Tagline: "Small summer, big aftermath — whose memory is the truth?"
