Pedro Allevato Remembers the “Dark Room”

In Pedro Allevato’s stark and personal new animated short film “Dark Room”, the discovery of a roll of old film triggers a young man’s reflection on past relationships as the ghost of his ex-girlfriend returns to haunt him.

Pedro Allevato: “The film talks about how memories and photographies might not show what really happens between couples. In other words, happiness does not exist without sadness and sadness does not exist without happiness.”
