The Remaining. Making FOMO feel exactly as bad as it should.

Client: Helsinki International Film Festival – Love & Anarchy

Transformative idea

Everyone knows the fear of missing out. We asked what happens when it stops being mild regret and turns into dread. The Remaining follows Helmi through a night where reality slowly cracks, and every character she meets is a mirror of what she can’t escape: guilt, fear and the need for answers. Part thriller, part horror, part absurd comedy, the trailer was shot in a single 12-hour day with Laura Birn, Martti Suosalo, Aamu Milonoff and Karim Rapatti, and grew into a short film of its own. The film closes on one line that works both as a hook and as an invitation to get out and go to the festival: you can still choose.
