Love Cycle

Short Film

Love Cycle

A young girl struggles and fails to differ between true love and meaningless one-night stands. 

  • Love Cycle is an ambitious short film that explores the theme of love in the modern world through the use of genre and visuel effects. Heavily inspired by Frank Millers Sin City, we engage into a world of loneliness and brief encounters.


    Short entirely on green screen, this was very much a visuel experiment and was prized for just that.
