Empathy

Empathy is an experimental film that expresses the negative connotations of empathy and the frustrations that it can cause. I decided to make it after I had spent some time stuck in a place where empathy consumed me. I used passages from the poem "Empath" by Mary Alexander and the poem "Empath" by Melody as I thought it perfectly reflected the thoughts that would run through my head when I felt overwhelmed with my emotions. This film allowed me to convey my struggles that were challenging to communicate.

Filmmaking has impacted my life as it has become my favorite way to express my inspiration and emotions. It gives me fulfillment after a longtime of not knowing if I'll ever feel a passion that filmmaking now gives me.
