Synopsis

Memento Mori: "Remember you must die."

This film follows the story of a young man named Gabe after his death. Waking up in his childhood home, he is met by a mysterious man who seems to know him with a level of familiarity that is deeply personal. The Man leads Gabe through his personal afterlife, guiding him through memories dear to his heart. He is shown what valuing life truly means, the love it has to offer, and how to find the strength to move forward.

"To remember you must die, is to remember you must live."

Short Summary

Welcome to Memento Mori! My name is Madison Grant, and I am the director. Nice to meet you :) As an ever-growing artist, I came into the new year looking for new challenges and new opportunities to give back to my community. I have been an actor for 9+ years now, fueled by my never-ending passion for this amazing craft. I have a desire to learn every aspect of it. And not only to learn it, but to excel in it. Memento Mori is my directorial debut, and with the help of my talented team, we have the vision, the work ethic, and the drive. Now, all we need is the support. It takes a whole village.

The Team

The driving forces! Their talent is immeasurable and give the air and confidence Memento Mori needs to succeed. Our crew has history, having worked on a multitude of films together. Last year, we worked on a slasher/comedy feature film "Getaway". From there, we couldn't stop popping out films. One of which was named "Slice", winning a whopping total of 9 awards in a single festival run. This team is packed full of  multi award-winning filmmakers, directors, technicians, artists, and actors. My confidence in them is absolutely unmatched.
