Modem

In this movie I wanted to take the delusions, which people consider as social lives, in the hand. Throughout the movie, we see the character we call ‘Person’ trying to escape from his loneliness by watching what other people do in virtual environment. Modem getting broken is enough for us to see the reality; when the modem is broken we can see: actually there is nobody around. But the ‘Person’ returns to his old life when the modem starts to work again. The reason why I didn’t name the ‘Person’ is, he symbolizes a community rather than an individual. I believe the namelessness is helpful for viewers to see themselves in the character. Throughout the movie the sound of the unknown whispers turns into shouting. I wanted this situation to give the feeling of awakening. I thought the viewers should wait for this awakening but it shouldn’t happen, since all these shouting don’t wake anybody up in real life. All of the dialogues and sounds are taken from books and theatre play texts. The reason for that is; I wanted to give references which I consider could be the cure, instead of pointing out one particular problem.
