The Absence Of Us

The Absence Of Us is a poetic, experimental, short film directed by Kristina Lloyd and written by Mary Alexandra Stiefvater. 

A woman is possessed by the dream that haunts her; repeating night after night until the dream and the dreamer are one.

In this poetic film, director Kristina Lloyd contemplates the haunting nature of dreams and how the dream can possess the dreamer.  This thoughtful mood piece asks the audience to conclude the dream.
