GRIEF | Short film

🎞️ Grief is the first short film I’ve ever created and shares my experience with losing a loved one. I hope by sharing my story, others can find a bit of comfort and realize we're not all so alone. ✏️Directing, writing, filming, editing, composing, everything was done by me. ❤️Thanks for watching and remember, it will be okay :) Settena Elaine Rogalski ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Transcript: I heard online that there are five stages to grief; denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. This is my experience. It was the day after my 8th birthday. I woke up, but my dad didn't. I didn't want to believe he was gone so I kept pretending it didn't happen. I ignored it. I mean, wouldn't you? I started blaming him for all of my problems. He was supposed to teach me how to ride a bike, how to drive, how to file taxes. Sometimes I wonder if I wouldn't feel as lost if he hadn't left. But I guess it wasn't really his fault; it's not like cancer gives you a choice whether you want to stay or go. Sometimes I wonder if it was my fault. Maybe I should've gone to church and prayed more. Maybe I should've sent letters to Santa, or used my birthday wish. I wish, I wish, I wish... But I didn't get to blow out my candles, his burnt out first. At this point, I started to feel really numb. I avoided my responsibilities as much as I avoided my feelings and eventually, everything was a mess. But time went on, even if it felt like it stopped. And with time, it didn't hurt so much anymore. Even though my life went relatively back to normal, it still hurts every once in a while, but grief is a continuous journey so it's normal to go through the stages again. We don't have to go through it alone though. Navigating grief is difficult, but that's okay, it will be okay.
