longGone (short film)

longGone by ivica (c)2025
(a short film) 
the first in a series of 30 short films

Three stories in one:
a couple in Paris, flappers in the Roaring Twenties, two old friends
...with no actors and no Hollywood editing:
straight unretouched photos + movies
and unplugged music recorded live:
one guitar + one ivica.

longGone TRANSCRIPT:

A DECLARATION OF WAR
(i didn't mean to)

go ahead + make your movie
you don't need money
you don't need a producer
you don't need
that ego director
you don't need a hollywood film editor
shaping the final story 
any way he alone wants

go ahead + make your movie
you don't need a sound editor
play it real: as the world is
it's a beautiful world
you don't need any artificial voices 
silly songs and dances
or inhuman edited fake music

go ahead + make your movie
you don't need any actors
faking it
in the real world
the world is your stage

go ahead + make your movie
you don't need an audience
you have you
you certainly don't need
a million lookers for your movie
a million listeners to your song
a million readers for your ebook
a few thousand or so is quite nice

(they declared the war...not me)
