"11-11", is a project that has been in the works since 2007, initially set to be much more elaborate: A full length, epic tale, intertwining various stories of those experiencing wake-up calls in their lives. But, sometimes a film chooses it's own direction..
"11-11" went through many stages, and eventually evolved into what it is now--which is essentially one out of the many stories originally planned. Although initially shot with speaking parts, I felt the power resided in it's simplicity--Letting the visuals speak for itself, while the music only enhanced the mood.
The film's message has significant meaning to me. The title summarizes that feeling..

Whoah, I guess I sorta should of watched it not mute, but to get a sense of what you were saying it became, that the visuals should take care of the rest, is not far off. I'm impressed. And i'm sure when the music tunes my emotions to it much more that I will go beyond impression and just flat out say 'damn'.
