Here's what I am speculating..


I'm sad to see that hardly anyone has said anything on this board. ah-well. This short film was amazing! The music was beautiful! There's definitely a question of what it was about. I'm speculating a loop. He at the light. Truck goes by. His girlfriend isn't there. There's a handprint. He gets out of the truck. See's the crash happening, puts his hand up to hers on the window. Then he's back into the truck again, at the stop light. Truck goes by, she's not there. but there's the handprint. He gets out of the truck, and it starts again, and again.
What you think?

I'm not sure what the film is about either but I don't think there's a loop. First time around, when Cole found he was alnone in a car, the truck passed them, there was no accident. Maybe he had some sort of an out of body experience or something, when your life passes in front of your eyes. I mean - when he was watching the moment of his, presumably, death he saw some memories of him and the girl, which was like life flashing in front of his eyes.

There's also some other thing that should be relevant in some way - a hand print on a window. When Alice was packing we can see she stops for a moment and looks at a photo where she held her hand the same way she did in a moment of an accident. There must be some meaning there.

... or maybe he's alnone in the car because she's dead, she died in an accident, and he was just re-living it, thinking what he could do to prevent it...
