We’re excited to publish the website for TORN. Even though this short film has been in the works since January 2022, it has taken nearly 6 months to get to this point. Development of a creative project always takes a period of time to percolate and evolve.
The components of our story, our characters, the filmmakers, and themes are on the site, including my story of the film’s origin.
One of the interesting aspects of the site is the “Explore the Themes” section. You can learn more about the issues underlying the story. We’ll talk more about those aspects in the coming weeks.
Key themes are Humanity vs. Technology as we explore online harassment of women. And also Finding Strength is another theme, since online abuse creates a multitude of mental health challenges.
Check out the site and let us know what you’d like to hear about as we continue with the film’s journey.
