Pair of Dice
The South • Short Films, 02-Nov-2023
After abusing prescription medication to induce amnesia, a woman experiences childlike wonder, terror, beauty, and love. Directors Spencer Witmer and Brandi Lynn Divine present “Pair of Dice,” a MiniDV expedition through the ruins and chambers of Orlando and its surrounding area. The young woman, played by co-director Brandi Lynn Divine, gets X-Ray scans at the dental office. Following her checkup, she receives pain medications and decides to let them work at full effect as she interacts with a crew of friends. Meandering from place to place, we are treated with a tour of the unique Floridian landscape through an analog scope— motel parking lots, DIY skate spots, abandoned buildings, and suburbia. -JM. Directors: Spencer Witmer and Brandi Lynn Divine. Cast: Brandi Lynn Divine, Thomas Tacner, Ethan Pinero, Choppagiirl, and James Bonez. DP: Spencer Witmer. Editor: Spencer Witmer.
