What are you running towards? ?David Reviews gives "Run Towards" 5 STARS and calls it "Darkly Enthralling" "Run Towards" is Runner up in the London-X4 Film Festival in the Drama Short category Drama What are you running towards? If you are not running towards then are you running from something instead? Since I moved to West Sussex a couple of years ago I have wanted to shoot a film here. The landscapes are vast and inspiring. The locations were perfect to illustrate the solitude of the runner. The Sony Walkman and the Orwellian style verse are a throwback to a world divided by an Iron curtain. There is similarity with what’s going on in the world today. Imagining our 21st century “friendly” technology in the hands of a secret police is a chilling thought. We give away more information about ourselves than in any time in history. I hope the guardians of this information respect our privacy and freedom. It came at a heavy price. It’s worth protecting… Cassette 4. Run Towards. Maintain a pace of 13 kilometers per hour. Clear your mind. Your clarity of thought is essential. Soon your tendons will ache, and the road before you will dissipate into a crimson haze. We are named TOWARDS, because we guide the weak, listless, vain and the despondent. We find a scrap of strength in their wretched bodies. We take them TOWARDS a better place, a better life. Any deviation from the set pace for any reason will not be tolerated. PLACE LEFT FOOT-BEFORE RIGHT FOOT-BEFORE LEFT FOOT-BEFORE RIGHT FOOT.
