Film 1001 Midterm Project (Ben Davis)

Toronto, Ontario, Canada

This Project is the inner thoughts of a university student who is on their way to their last lecture before Covid19 flipped the world upside down. You follow the trip to university from the bus stop all the way to Yonge-Dundas Square. The inner thoughts were what was going through my mind on the last normal day of university and I wanted to convey that.
