Shores of Tempus

2011, 5 minutes

Several characters pass by a treasure chest along the shores of the beach but are so caught up in their lives they don't even take notice! Except for one...

Takes place along the shores of a beach. Time and opportunity are the two main themes established in the film. A treasure chest with a note on it that reads: “It's yours IF you want it” is discovered by an odd wondering character, who appears lost in his day, his life even. Right now he has a choice for all that to change and this very moment tests his character. Can he seize the opportunity? Or does he let his doubts and uncertainty become his failure... He continuously tries to open the treasure chest, or at least examine it close, but someone always comes along, frightening him away from his hidden bounty. The irony is the people that frighten him away are actually so caught up in their own lives they have no awareness of the treasure chest being within their proximity.
