VEE-REVIEW: The Man Who Met Himself

Dear Frankie | Nectar | The Man Who Met Himself |

The Great Ecstasy of Robert Carmichael

Ben Crowe, director of The Man Who Met Himself

The Man Who Met Himself, written and directed by Ben Crowe, was an official selection in this year's short film category at Cannes. It's the story of a private detective investigating the case of a man who committed suicide. What really happened? Did the man fake his own death, or do doppelgangers really exist?

'We don't understand suicide and as a society we don't do enough to prevent it,' says Crowe. 'We accept that people kill themselves, but what drives people to it is rarely discussed, and its aftermath is ignored.'
