Good Bones (Short film, 2025)

Accompanied by Maggie Smith’s hauntingly beautiful poem “Good Bones”, we journey with a priest navigating a desolate and lonely world. Through desolation, he searches for fragments of beauty, proof that life’s promise still lingers beneath the ashes.

Because sometimes, even when the world breaks, there’s a whisper that says, “This place could be beautiful, right? You could make this place beautiful.”

Here’s a reminder that hope lives in the act of looking.
