"An average person spends 2.6 minutes per hour / 62 minutes per day / 5 years of life waiting for things." - these are the opening words of the synopsis for this 1-minute short film. Written and directed by the Bosnian / Vietnamese duo Denis Leo Hegic and Thuan Te.

With the constant reminding of speed of action and the importance of seeing from different perceptions we emphasize here at DUDYE, this little movie is an excellent example of that meaning. Substop is a simple and modest film about a guy waiting for a bus in a typical London industrial neighborhood. But it tickles our minds and questions our own perceptions of time.

The change of the movie speed (first 30 seconds reserved for very long and slow shots followed by a 30 seconds action sequence) stands also for the change of the main character: the transformation from a silent, insecure man into a wild and creative artist.

The title "Substop" suggests that all this could be happening just in his head - as a subconscious process, but that is not a primary issue, since the message of this little film is: As long as you are listening to the silent ideas in your head, there is no such time as wasted time.

Substop was filmed with the visuals of a super 8 camera and is participating in the short film competition announced by Felissimo NYC.
