Before It Faded

Before It Faded follows Matty, a once-aspiring filmmaker now living on the streets after the death of his mother and the quiet collapse of his dreams. Struggling with isolation, shame, and the daily fight for survival, Matty drifts through abandoned buildings and cold city nights, clinging to fragments of the life he once imagined for himself. When an unexpected encounter brings him back to reality, he is forced to confront the person he has become — and the version of himself he thought was lost. The film explores the fragile line between invisibility and recognition, and what it means to rediscover purpose before it fades completely.
