Trailer
A short drama following an introspective woodworker whose quiet and quirky routine is disrupted when he begins work on a mysterious new project.
‘Full Steam Ahead’ deliberately goes against the grain in its construction and style with the aim of making the audience question their own speed of life and their relationship to technology in a vivid and experiential way. Inspired by our own struggles with the effects of a hurried existence such as burnout and mental health struggles ‘Full Steam Ahead’ is an important work for us that hopes to signify the value of individuality, and of connection to nature and the world around us despite the culture of hustle around.
We’re so grateful to our friends for creating this stunning Soundtrack which inspired this project, and for all the cast and crew (who are also great friends) who have made this film happen.
