MY FRIEND KILLS TIME / TRAILER (10 MIN.)

See the complete film at NOWNESS.COM

Thomas moves to a remote cabin in an attempt to disappear completely... even from himself. My Friend Kills Time mixes visual textures and haunting soundscapes to create a cinematic diary of a young man's isolation.

MFKT premiered in competition at South By Southwest 2012 and has since screened at several festivals including Bristol Encounters and The Festival Du Nouveau Cinéma.

Playmaker Review: "This is my most eagerly-anticipated short film premiering at SXSW this year. Beautifully and hauntingly shot, this is the story of Thomas, a disenchanted man who decided to live in the confines of a small cabin in the countryside in search of solitude. Rørvik takes his time to unfold and develop each scene of Thomas’ visual diary to emphasize the slowness of the days that pass. He uses the moody landscape and dark waters near the cabin as a reference to Thomas’ emotional journey into himself. Dario Swade deserves special mention as the film’s sound designer."
