Young orphan Jeffrey has a peculiar craving for human flesh after his new flatmate moving in heightened his lifelong desire to taste human flesh.
Will it be a coming-of-age love story that confounds yet delights? Only time will tell.

Working within the parameters of a short film can be challenging at times, especially when you’re given a super cool narrative like this. Our idea involved the pairing of two distinct string instruments to form the bulk of the composition. This pairing technique was loosely based on two concepts:
1
Love. It takes time and it takes two hands to clap.
2
Meat. Like salt & pepper, flavours for a richer experience
Accompanied by different string elements and techniques, our goal was to keep the score within a steady tempo, eventually connecting their moments with the passing of time from friends to lovers.
After a warm hearty meal, our team decided it’s time to put together a contemporary piece to commemorate Renae and Jeffrey's brewing relationship. We drew inspiration from a variety of romantic comedies and dramas, such as Amélie, Her, and The Dreamers.
