DNA - Dennis Kelly Short Film

Hey guys! great to see all the comments, im Robyn, the editor of the film.

Just wanted to clarify some stuff. this film was designed to work as an individual piece that could work without the rest of the play, the characters we portray here aren't necessarily accurate portrayals of the characters in the play, in fact what we actually did was have each character portray a different stage of grief. once we had the 5 stages we then looked at the script and figured out who's dialog fitted which stage best.

fun fact, we actually didnt read the rest of the play before filming this as we didnt want it influencing our creative direction, it was one of our actors who told us how the play actually ends.

This is very much a loose adaptation/interpretation of the scene we picked, so be careful using this as a source for any form of educational examinations.

other than that good luck with your various studies and plays and im glad you enjoyed our adaptation of this scene.

I'm bringing this play to the stage and shouldn't watch other adaptation but I gave up and watched this amazing short film. It was so intense!! I love it to bits!

OMG THIS IS THE ONE OF THE BEST SHORT FILMS I’VE EVER SEEN

This is incredible loose adaptation or not this is great as a Film on it's own! Great job.

Wow, this is so imaginative. The filming was so good! I loved how John's status is portrayed here.

Very well done! The actor of Mark was very convincing.

Goosebumps. all the way up and down my body. great film guys!

Thought this was really good, well done guys. I reckon the tone of the piece could have been set better from the beginning, and the pace felt slightly off through out, but apart that, great job.
