Abstract/Artist Statement
In a twenty-first-century twist on the old accidental switch trope, this film shows that you can learn a lot about someone when you have that person’s phone and that sometimes even the smallest events can change your life for the better. Jae and Omi pass each other briefly and take each other’s cell phones home by mistake. Over the next several hours they text each other a form a bond they would otherwise have missed out on.
