Short film(s) analisis - last weeks theme of friendship

La Gouffre is a short film about friendship, beating the odds/doing the impossible and sacrifice. in this short the audience follows the journey of two friends who's journey comes to an abrupt stop when they find that the bridge they have to cross has been destroyed. with no other way across the canyon the pair must find a way to get across and ultimately decide to use all the wood and old pieces of the bridge that they can to rebuild it. The story center's around their endevour to rebuild the bridge.

 The thing that I like most about this sequence is that you can see the exact moment that the characters decide to build the bridge which is represented by the sun, like a 'light bulb' moment. You can tell from their weathered and slightly rugged appearance that they've been on this journey for a while and the photo above shows how they consider turning back before ultimately decide against that and decide to build the bridge instead.

These two photos show how the closest of friends can communicate without words.

Over the duration of the film you see the different aspects of friendship and the importance of it. you see how your friend is the one that motivates you the most and can actually shape who you are, while this part isnt shown directly at the end you see the impact the death of the blonde one has on the other.
