Kiss: A Love Story

Kiss was a labour of love for co-directors Joseph Hodgson and Franck Aubry. It sets out to explore something as innocent as a kiss. Produced with little to no budget, based on a modest but omnipresent theme - a love story. Inspired by the world around us, and presented in an ominously dark world where it's story slowly unfolds, leaving the viewer to make their own conclusions as to the outcome of the film. 　　Presented in glorious black and white, super widescreen format and with no dialogue it aspires to create a timeless aesthetic and story that has universal appeal. Kiss is a love story plain and simple, personified by the sun and moon and told as a solar eclipse. x 　　Joseph Hodgson 　　Joseph is a filmmaker whose career in the motion graphics industry spans almost a decade.
