My direction highlights to the viewers how our senses can be manipulated to the greater good of others. Edward who is afraid of the dark is suddenly forced to face his worst fear when he becomes blind. I wanted to explore his emotional state and visualise his mind's eye allowing the viewer to see Edwards imagination and the reality that presented itself on a daily bases. I wanted to explore and push the envelope around love being blind forcing the viewers to question everyone's motivations around Edward in both his quest for love and him seeking the truth from his past. Working with Goldon Globe nominee Jane Merrow was a delight and getting her to play variable ages was a devise executed to reflect the passing of time.—carl medland
