amygdala is a short psychological thriller about grief, reincarnation, and the cyclical nature of unlearned lessons.

After losing his wife and daughter in a car accident he believes he caused, David—a man haunted by guilt—arranges his own death. But rather than simply disappear, he spends his final two weeks hiding letters to guide his future self in the next life. He leaves instructions at three meaningful locations: the beach where they laughed, the playground where his daughter swung, and a bench in the forest. His hope: when he's reincarnated and finds these letters, he'll finally learn the lessons this life taught him too late—patience, presence, how to grieve.

Visually restrained and thematically rich, Amygdala is designed for the festival circuit—specifically targeting Sundance and other Oscar-qualifying festivals.
