Still

A gay teenager detached from his surroundings, Guy (Jason Woo) runs away from home to escape the idle stillness of his life in the ethereal nearly silent short film Still. He is desperate for a human connection, some kind of a substitute for love—something he never receives from his absent, distant father, whom he never fully knows or understands. Guy takes the train towards a beach town and checks into a dilapidated motel, roaming the barely-alive streets aimlessly and cruising through life’s clichés only to find discomfort and disillusionment.
