THE FILM
Alone in a world of turbines, Alice's decision to take her life could be the thing that saves her
Dandelion is a film about grief and second chances. Our main character, Alice has suffered an unimaginable tradgedy and is given a another chance to restart her life. It takes a lot to move on when it seems impossible but that is the choice Alice is given.
The endless wind turbines covering the planet represent the fact that we have used up a lot of the Earth's resources and we are slowly killing it; but unlike Alice, we won’t get a second chance. We use the sound of the turbines and breathing throughout the film to convey this idea of life and living.
