Our Review:
This an amazing short film that conveys so much emotions in such a short time. The actors are so natural that we are able to connect with their emotions. Technically this a very strong film too. The background score is very beautiful and the photography and color tone is matching the mood and the story of the film. Overall this an exceptional film to watch!

Director Statement
I'll Never Love Again is a powerful story about grief, love and mental health. I wanted to tell a realistic story that dealt with an uncomfortable subject that would hopefully provoke thought and discussion.
