In this poignant ten-minute drama from director Aidan Phillips, a chance encounter forces a young man to confront the fragile line between memory and reality. The story follows a solitary individual, played by Hadrian Conyngham, who finds his quiet routine disrupted when he meets a mysterious woman portrayed by Caroline LeVans. As they spend a brief but intense afternoon together, their conversation drifts between the mundane and the deeply personal, uncovering shared losses and unspoken regrets. The film’s intimate atmosphere, supported by performances from Antonia Luise Gebauer, Robbie Fox, and Oliver Woodard, creates a quiet tension that lingers beneath every exchange. Central to the narrative is the elusive figure of Petey, whose absence haunts both characters and shapes the emotional stakes of their meeting. Through subtle gestures and carefully crafted dialogue, the film explores themes of grief, connection, and the stories we tell ourselves to make sense of the past. Without ever revealing its hand, Petey & I builds toward a revelation that reframes everything the audience has witnessed, offering a moving meditation on how we hold onto those we have lost.
