This film was intended to show a darker side to the higher education system. The protagonist constantly runs from a shadowy figure that resembles himself. The figure is supposed to represent the promise of a better, more successful person who has graduated college. However, the figure is only a facade to get the protagonist to pay high prices for a degree that may or may not help him in the future. I love college, this does not reflect my own personal beliefs. However, I feel often as though the education system is flawed. This is the main theme of my short film.
