Award-Winning Short Film OVER and the Pandemic

(DailyMusicRoll Editorial):- Los Angeles, California Mar 17, 2025 (Issuewire.com) – Five years ago on March 18, 2020, a video capture of a then-seemingly apocalyptic existence would months later be evolved into a pivotal short film OVER.

Directed by first-time filmmaker Brie Cole, OVER unfolds as the main character (and narrator) makes a last visit to her neighborhood mall just prior to the mandatory Pandemic shutdown.  As she tried to absorb all things Pandemic, she finds herself reflecting upon her own life and surroundings.  The film meets the challenge of displaying authenticity all within the confides of a compressed seven minutes!  Audiences have literally been moved to tears with  reported feelings of exaltation and catharsis.  The realism of the political and social elements of South Los Angeles are definitely apparent.  OVER has screened at prestigious festivals, earning multiple awards and international critical acclaim.

“Marking five years of OVER is a special milestone,” said Brie Cole. “The film’s themes remain just as relevant today as they were at its premiere.  I am humbled that to see how it continues to resonate with audiences.”

To commemorate the anniversary, fans and newcomers are invited to view the film now on YouTube  

Explore the lasting impact OVER has on innovative filmmaking and contemporary cinema.
