Queer Brit actor/writer/director Leon Lopez had us in tears last night. Unsuspectingly he had sent us a link to his new short film ‘HEY GOOGLE’ that had been released online only a few hour earlier.
‘Hey Google’ is a very touching short film dealing with issues surrounding Isolation, lockdown and loneliness that we can all relate to in the current COVID 19 crisis.
The entire project was written, filmed and edited in less than seven days. Lopez stated “Covid-19 has been a testing experience, but inspired and pushed me as a filmmaker to demonstrate just what you can achieve with little resources in a short space of time during unexpected circumstances. The film brought out so many emotions and resonates with so many people who have seen it. I would go as far as to say that it’s some of my best work to date.”
