THINGS THAT MATTER

THINGS THAT MATTER

THINGS THAT MATTER

Thomas, a young adult working in finance, is determined to succeed professionally, no matter the hardships and sacrifices, even if it costs him the pleasure of life. His obsession will however be put on hold when he wakes up one morning in the body of his "him" 20 years earlier.

It is not without difficulty that Thomas has to relearn the taste for carelessness and simple things.

SHORT FILM

A WORD FROM JULES CHERBONNIER, director

"I don't have time, I have to work.       

"What is my goal in life?"

"If I had started this ten years earlier..."        

"If I had known."   

"I will become someone."

​

 

 

Creating this project, writing this story comes from a desire to illustrate our quest, I should even say, our common obsession that we have to succeed... To conquer and mark our existence in this world in order to overcome that fear of being forgotten.

I think we can all, to some degree, relate to Thomas, his loneliness and perdition in his choices and daily life. We all wish to discover the answer to this search for happiness, our reason or destiny that we feel we have an obligation to fulfill and follow.

 

In my life, I have been Thomas, I have been lost and stubborn, I have been alone by my own doing. My message is the one I got from this experience: Happiness can be found in the small moments of life, it is not enough to chase after some extreme.

 

Take a breath, stop and take the time to see how far you have come, to consider the people who surround you and love you: You don't need anything more, you are happy.

​

 

 

Jules CHERBONNIER, Director.

DIRECTION OF PHOTOGRAPHY

We paid particular attention to each shot, each framing in order to translate and sublimate the director's intentions into images. 

LIGHT

The light was artificially composed for each shot in order to ensure homogeneity and consistency throughout the short film.

FRAMING

In order to ensure the best possible image rendering, we captured every moment with a cinema camera, the ALEXA MINI ARRI.

MUSICAL COMPOSITION

The original composition of the film was made from scratch in order to translate the director's intentions from a sound point of view.
