Phillip Ristaino
This short film, The Clench of the Claw was shot on 16MM FILM. The short film depicts the story of a memory loss man consults with his doctor. I have always interested in people's perception, stereotype regarding how people see and make their own judgment based solely on their first impression on what they see.
