We'll Always Have Paris

We'll Always have Paris is a short fiction film that takes place in a single room over the span of one night. In it, an American man seeks the services of a black market euthanist in Paris, and the film explores the medical complications and the series of emotionally tumultuous events that ensue. I directed the film in February of 2011 from a script written by Nicolas Drapeau, a fellow student of the Graduate Program in Film, specifically from the screenwriting stream. His script was an expansion of a story developed by myself and, long time collaborators and creative partners, Markus Gilles and Abraham Singer. We'll Always Have Paris focuses on a man's desire to end his life in the city of lights, and the young woman who reluctantly ends up sharing his final night with him.
