Synopsis: The story of relationships – the romance, the charm, the innocence, the conflict, the resolve, the acceptance, the joy, the trust, the belief, the past, the future – a series of scenarios of people having their portrait taken focusing on that moment just before the flash goes off. How we present ourselves, how we wish to be remembered. With lead singer Matt O’Donnell playing the part of photographer, bassist Nick Seymour with his ventriloquist doll, Steve Paix with his charming bird, drummer Reuben Alexander as a philosopher and percussionist Josh Barber as the pizza delivery guy. You As Me – a reflection on a life we all live.
