HANGEHERAN- Major Project Student Film

Hangeheran is a story depicting the last surviving divine soldier of the long dead Forge God Hethnis. This soldier, named Harbinger, is still fighting the same war he was created to fight six thousand years ago; not only battling the creatures still hellbent on destroying the world, but also centuries of fatigue in his old age. He is met with the Goddess of Dragons Queen Huyonivahr who finally offers him rest, where he wakes an undefined number of years later to find the world has healed and life has returned. The underlying theme of it all relating to overworking oneself to the point of exhaustion (of which the irony is not lost on me as I royally overexerted myself making this film), and the main character is close to me as a sort of avatar to imagine a more capable and self assured version of myself.
