Synopsis:
A man waits. He longs for and mourns for, his increasingly disconnected and disparate love for a person. Goodbye to Love is an epilogue of a romance, contemplative of a protagonist who meditates on the forking ways his liaisons have left him. Suspended in that final, desperate monochrome moment, Goodbye to Love geometrically traces the evaporating points of a love triangle in three spare, melancholic acts. An elegy to the demise of a feeling, and the longing that permeates.
The short was screened as a video installation at the "Notthatbalai" art exhibition. Later it was split into three 2-minutes segments to complement a dance performance, "Emotion in Motion".
