A noise nobody else hears. A grief nobody else sees. Physics meets heartbreak in 15 minutes.
HUM is a short Sci-Fi film that draws inspiration from real life events surrounding the hum phenomenon, experienced in Bristol and Taos. A story of grief and loss, HUM blends together elements of character drama and mystery with contemporary quantum physics theories.
