Totem (2025)
TOTEM is a short psychological drama that explores loneliness, grief, and the quiet emotional struggles of a young individual confronting the weight of childhood trauma. Set against a stark black-and-white visual landscape, the film follows a deeply personal journey through isolation, memory, and the longing for emotional connection. At its heart, TOTEM examines how the absence of a loved one can continue to shape a person's inner world long after their departure. A Batman toy, seemingly an ordinary childhood possession, becomes a symbolic anchor to the protagonist's past, representing memories, emotional attachment, and the fragile comfort of familiarity. Blending elements of psychological drama and neo-noir aesthetics, the film offers an intimate portrait of solitude and the invisible burdens people carry within themselves.
