Overview

"Aster and Sidney is a 19-minute narrative short film directed by Sean Temple and written by Sean Temple and Sarah Wisner. Aster and Sidney are survivors. What destroyed their world is unknown, but what keeps them alive is a constant state of vigilance. Former strangers, they have bonded together against the threat of those who would harm them for the food in their packs or the shoes on their feet. They travel away from the city, instinctively seeking isolation in the hope that wilderness will save them from humanity. But Sidney carries a secret - a pregnancy from a previous relationship, putting their very survival at risk. Sidney must decide if she can trust Aster with her secret, and they both must decide if it's worth living, just to survive." -- Abstract.
