A young woman who has lost sight of her dreams reunites with her ex-boyfriend for the first time since their breakup. Together, they reflect on their past and consider the possibility of rekindling their relationship…

Ivy has settled into a quiet, unremarkable life in Los Angeles, far from the artistic ambitions she once held. When her estranged ex-lover and a reclusive visual artist, Alden visits after vanishing from her life months earlier, the two spend a few fleeting days together. What begins as a hesitant reunion, soon becomes a deep reckoning with the past they shared and the versions of themselves they left behind.

"Some people come back into your life not to stay, but to show you who you've become"

Hello, my name is Benjamin Zietara. I am the writer and director of the upcoming short film, "Linea Nova". My producer and partner in life and I, moved to Los Angeles from the United Kingdom to make our dream of filmmaking a reality. Living in LA, we are surrounded by Hollywood film iconography/history and draw inspiration from like minded and passionate local creatives following similar dreams. We are very excited to bring my vision to life and have high aspirations for this project. We need your help to make this a reality.

We are looking to raise sufficient funds to bring this short film to life. Our plan is to showcase the final production at key film festivals as part of a promotional plan. You can be part of our hopeful near future success! With your help, we’ll be able to fund production elements such as equipment rental fees, set design, crew etc. By generously funding, you’ll not only help us to realize our film, but you’ll significantly enhance our production quality the more kind donations we receive.

We can’t wait to show the world "Linea Nova”!

In advance, we’d like to thank you for your time and indulging us with your support. Anything you donate will be greatly appreciated.
