Short Film
Lapses
Lapses is the story of a man who is losing his memory. Can he trust his memories when all he remembers is that he is a superhero? It is also the story of how a father and son reconnect with each other after a near fatal disaster.
Shashank Shrestha
When he was 5 years old, Shashank Shrestha first used his grandmother's Yashica film camera which was older than he is. 17 years later, he is still using a camera that is older than he is. He is currently studying Telecommunications at Lee University. Shashank has been working as the Managing photo editor for the Lee University Student Media and Office of Publications - which basically means he takes pictures... a lot. A biased believer of the power of media, Shashank is enamored with visual media - photography and films. When not over-working, Shashank likes to listen to music, read newspapers and discuss the philosophical elements in Batman's character design.

Canon 5D? Wow...very professional quality. I really loved it. Hit home because my dad has alzheimer's. Thanks, Shashank...<3

well, if only the internet was faster. I thoroughly enjoyed watching it and it was worth the wait to load the whole movie.

Amazing Job! Congratulations.
From the profile, I see your interest in photography, so absolutely not surprised with the quality of the photographic elements, it's quite well done!
Overall in terms of the storyline, that's quite an effective take on the effects of Alzheimer's. I'd seen a first person perspective video capturing it last year sometime which was pretty good as well. Can't quite remember the name of it though.
