Future Feeling
A family wakes up on a Nantucket beach to find a mysterious house--with no memory of how they got there. As the parents retrace their footsteps to remember the past, the children discover an oncoming storm that threatens to destroy their future.
Future Feeling is our first self produced short film and truly a labour of love. We will be entering it into film festivals and it will premier in 2024!
