Project Detail

Haven

Synopsis

Haven is an afterlife love story between two jaded spirits. A young man is dragged along a bridge by two men and thrown over the side. His name is Tom and the dark afterlife he awakes in will never be the same. Tom meets a beautiful but haunted young woman. Together they attempt to overcome the past in a place built out of secrets.

Haven incorporates black box performance with innovative camera work and animation. Lino-cuts and prints by artist Trevor Haddrell create the architecture of the afterlife. Memories from life back in the world are shown through the eyes of the characters using a specially designed camera apparatus. The film boasts a gripping original soundtrack by the post-industrial band Mindless Faith.
