Inspiration

(Experimental filmexperimental cinema, or avant-garde cinema is a mode of filmmaking that rigorously re-evaluates cinematic conventions and explores non-narrative forms or alternatives to traditional narratives or methods of working.)

Unattended and loneliness of some souls in our society inspire me to take my pen on psychology of them that how they overcome their problems in their routine without props of their society members.  

So for my this experimental short film, I have watched a lot of experimental films while I was working on my story. But honestly speaking there was no film whose story matches to my idea or film. 

But these are the following links to the short films that inspired me or you can that helped me to execute my story better:

Goals

In this story psychology effect of a boy evaluate step by step at one moment a scar and fear in his mind is created by huge and clumsy nature of train due to his loneliness and support lessens but this fear evaluate itself by his reasoning power of his mind. 

composition of this story only tries to wind the idea that man is master of his mind and he can overcome his problems by cognancy and logic of his mind in daily life.
