"The Falling Man" by Andrew Perry

We found this film while at an open day at Bucks New University. While looking at the Film and T.V. Production course at the university we were handed a Film showcase by one of the lecturers. When  we got home we watched all of the short films on the showcase to see what type of films they made at the university. We were pleasently surprised when we found this film as we think that it has quite a few similarities to our idea for our own film.
The film starts inside a woman's house. she seems to be moving out and her family are helpimg her to get some of her loft. Her grandson finds a diary and hands it to her. The diary turns out to belng to someone whom she once knew. the film then shows flashbacks from her past.
We thought that this narrative was very similar to our idea because it follows an eldery person who finds a diary of someone she once knew but has since died and because it shows flashbacks from different eras and it also uses the same props such as the record player.
Our film differs due to the fact that the film won't relate to an anecdote about a man who fell from the sky but instead it will focus more on the relationship between a widow and her late husband.
