The Difference Between Us
The Difference Between Us is a short film created by Imran Siddique.
Short Film Synopsis:
Sufia, an undocumented immigrant newly in Philadelphia, searches for a place to live, uncovers family histories, and explores her romantic imagination. Sufia leaves her home in Illinois and arrives in Philadelphia, PA, hoping to live with her cousin, Tisha. But Tisha can't house her in the small studio apartment she secretly shares with a partner, and so Sufia must find a place of her own — without money or citizenship. This is where The Difference Between Us begins, as Sufia explores the apartment that she will soon sublet, feeling drawn to an energy (or is it a memory?) inside the place. She is quickly taken with her new roommate, who she hasn't yet met but with whom she communicates via increasingly intimate notes. But it will take reconnecting with a buried past for her to truly find a sense of safety here.
Support Pruning: A Short Film
"Pruning" is a short film co-created by Anto Astudillo and Kelley Van Dilla.
Short Film Credits:
Production Assistant / Sound / Boom Mic Operator - Iman 'King'Carter
About the Film:
As they deepened their friendship, Astudillo and Van Dilla discovered wonderful synchronicities in their lived experiences as trans and queer filmmakers, and decided they wanted to create something together. Pruning follows Polo in their day-to-day life while they navigate medically transitioning, looking for work, and living alone in a lonely city. Though they find caring for plants easier than caring for themselves, an elder wise woman, Tia Silvia, constantly checks in on them and helps them on their journey. Every night Polo has the same dream: that they're slowly turning into a being made of plants.
