- 'TIM' is a Freudian short film about Tim: an insecure, self-sabotaging and codependent young man who is unable to get over his ex girlfriend. It is a deconstruction of Tim's mind as explored through discussions of his recent breakup with personified versions of Tim's Id, Ego and Superego. Director and star Alexander Black gained 40 pounds (20 kilos) and then lost them and gained 15 pounds (7 kilos) of muscle in order to play both Tim, who is overweight, and Tim's Ego, who is in great shape (both interacting with one another). Due to the physical transformation demands of this project, this film was shot in 2 days, 1 year apart.—Anonymous
