Personal statement

Director Kryshan Randel says:

"Glimpse was inspired by the thought of someone being able see the future of their relationships with people that they've only just met, combined with the character idea of a woman venturing outside her house for the first time in weeks after a very bad breakup, that only runs into men.

Surreal concept, awkward comedy, with a hint of horror - my favourite mix to work with."
