Escargot: A Parisian Love Story

127 views

A seeming race against time through the winding streets of Paris proves to be less accidental than first seen. We see a mysterious red-gloved woman use her powers of control to guide a man through the streets of Paris - orchestrating missed alarm clocks, late buses, and some « friendly » encounters. The story is symbolic of the intangible forces that seem to operate in our lives. We interpreted this force in a person who has the power to control the lives of others by imposing obstacles. Which makes us wonder, are there others among us who bare this same power?

Joshua Hauville

Brittany and Joshua first met on set in 2024, they instantly bonded over our love for storytelling and comedy. Blending her background as an American actress/director/producer and his as an Australian actor/writer/comedian, they create from joy and hope the audience feels that joy too.
