STUCK - A film about lockdown, made by crew in quarantine

STUCK

A SHORT FILM ABOUT LOCKDOWN
MADE BY CREW IN QUARANTINE

━

The coronavirus impacts all sectors in society, with only essential jobs being allowed to continue their activities. As a result, the creative sector is one of the first to experience a dramatic reduction in projects and income.

With all these talented people being forced to stay home, a lot of potential is lost in capturing this unique and unprecedented global event. But physical isolation doesn’t equal a lockdown of the arts as well. Throughout history creative people have embraced limitations and used them as inspiration to create thought-provoking work.

Production company Fledge reached out to some of Belgium’s most talented filmmakers to create a story that transcends the documentarian approach, and to find a narrative that resonates with all people experiencing the mental struggle during quarantine measures.

The short film was made by each crew member working from their homes, during the COVID-19 lockdown in Belgium. As an ode to creativity and to inspire people that beautiful things can happen no matter the restrictions we face.

The story follows a young woman stuck in her apartment, desperate to get out yet fully conscious about the personal responsibility she has as an individual in this global crisis.
