Based around the emotions and themes explored on the double album LOVE by atmospheric stadium rock band, Angels & Airwaves, this film is an interesting study of loneliness and the building the strength to overcome it. LOVE follows the story of a sole man in a space station orbiting Earth, when he learns everybody has died and he's left stranded with no way home.
Filmed in director William Eubank's backyard, it's quite noticeably made on a shoestring budget. Eubank makes the best of what he's got with beautiful and fascinating cinematography, while actor Gunner Wright is impressive considering he's the only actor on screen for the most part.
As a fan of AVA I had high expectations for this film. As a fan of film I had low expectations. In the end, those expectations met close to the middle leaning towards the higher expectations.
