In 2012, Shawn Christensen wrote, edited, directed and starred in his short film Curfew. One fine day, the year after, 2013, he left his house, went to the Dolby Theatre, collected the Oscar, returned home, and decided to make it a feature. The year after, 2014, he wrote, edited, produced, directed, composed, and starred in the feature version of Before I Disappear. Christensen earned his standing ovations at the film festivals as he did a remarkable job in front and behind the camera.
This is a grim story in which surrealistic antiheroes encounter realistic situations. From bottom-feeders, washed-up, and wannabe gangsters to decadent, self-destructive, hopeless “next door” people, bonding, regret, redemption, oblivion, and so much more become the common denominator and compose a virtuoso and hallucinatory piece of work.
