In a world saturated by digital media, performative behaviors, and fragmented connections, the indie short film “The View From Outside” emerges as a raw, authentic exploration of modern life’s complexities.
Created by Drew Bickford and Patricia Lai, the film captures the chaos, humor, and poignancy of strangers gathered outside a small independent theater. Each character brings their unique baggage—social media obsession, identity struggles, hidden prejudices—revealing deeper truths about our disconnected connections.
Our goal is more than just creating entertainment. We aim to provoke thoughtful conversations, challenge perceptions, and hold up a mirror to society’s contradictions and unspoken judgments. Through meticulous storytelling, powerful performances, and a sharp commentary on digital culture, we invite audiences to reflect on their interactions and biases.
“The View From Outside” is already in production, thanks to incredible support from family, friends, and passionate indie film enthusiasts. But to truly fulfill our vision and reach global audiences through prominent film festivals, we need your help.
By supporting our campaign, you become part of an important narrative that questions how we see each other—and ourselves—in this digital age. Join us in bringing this bold, timely story to life.
