AND SO WE ARE HERE

The closer they get, the more they fall apart.

AND SO WE ARE HERE tells the story of two teenagers who, after a chance encounter, experience a summer day together – but the closer they get, the more everything becomes unbalanced.

This project was created as part of my bachelor’s thesis and deals with the topic of non-linear narrative structures. Using several film versions, it was determined whether a non-linear narrative structure improves the film experience and which aspects can be influenced by it.
