‘Aydan & Evan' (2023) is a short film starring Aidan Cheng (You, Devils, Harlots) and Misia Butler (Kaos, The School of Good & Evil). Written & directed by Elizabeth Cassidy and produced by Andriani Scordellis, the film follows Aydan, who feeling lost meets Evan at an afterparty. The film unfolds through Aydan's memory of meeting Evan. As Aydan tries to unravel his romantic feelings for Evan, we are submerged in his recollection of that night; a space caught between memory and fantasy.
