GHOSTS - Part III - Eurydice Underground

Watch in High Quality! Filmed in London, UK as part of the Nine Inch Nails "Ghosts" Film Festival. Inspired by "Ghosts" we created a 22 minute short film recontextualizing the classical Greek myth of "Orpheus & Eurydice". Improvised and shot on the go. ---- A failed leap year proposal leads to a wrong time/wrong place for Eurydice. As she descends into the underworld - literally the underground where the dead continue on, she is unable to. Caught up in her memories and love of Orpheus she tries to catch the right tube home. Lost in the underworld, a chance meeting with a sympathetic Izanami (the Goddess of creation and death) leads to her eventual return to the overworld. Upon her arrival she discovers that Orpheus has moved on after her death. She decides to leave him in the land of the living after witnessing his new found happiness and returns to the underworld. Part I of V ------ Music from Nine Inch Nails "Ghosts"
