Goodbye Sun

2024 · 20 min

A slow, sun-drenched family drama that turns quietly unsettling as an ordinary summer day slips into something strange and unresolved.

Overview: Luna, 11 years old, lives with her big brother, Julien, 17, and her two adoptive fathers. It’s the end of summer and the heat is stifling. They are impatiently awaiting the solar eclipse that everyone has been talking about. The sun disappears behind the moon…it does not reappear.
How it feels: Eerie, melancholic, tense and warm. Slow-burning and needs your attention.
About: Family, isolation, survival, environment
Content: Mild language. No violence, gore or sexual content.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
