September (2024) | Short Film | Written by Malaya Rhiann, Directed by Apechhya Gurung

September is a tense, emotional drama that explores the complexities of love, regret, and the choices that shape relationships. Set entirely in a single hotel room, the film follows Quincy and Semar, two former lovers who reconnect in secret despite being in committed relationships. As they confront their past, the weight of their decisions becomes overwhelming, forcing them to consider whether they should let go of their old selves and move forward or cling to a connection that is no longer sustainable. Through intimate conversations and silences, September captures the pain of unresolved emotions and the struggle between holding on and letting go.
