THREEDOM, 7min,. USA
Directed by Garrett Hopkins
A young couple finds themselves lost in their own relationship. Brought to frustration and confusion one of them shares the idea of an open relationship. Reluctantly the partner agrees and actually travels a new road learning about themself. Perhaps they just needed to find each other, in someone new.

Get to know the filmmaker:
What motivated you to make this film?
This film was produced for the 2024 CFC (Collaboration Filmmakers Challenge). A two week filmmaking competition with a quote from Hunter S. Thompson as the only prompt “Freedom is something that dies if it isn’t used” With every project I do, I want there to be something new for me. I’ve never written a RomCom before, so I decided I’d take that quote and see how I might be able to find its relevance in the complex world of interpersonal relationships.
What were your initial reactions when watching the audience talking about your film in the feedback video?
I think you know when you’ve written a very believable and relatable script when someone reviewing your film eventually stops reviewing it and more so stumbles down the rabbit hole of the story. And opens up about their own understanding and experience with the film’s plot.
