Trivia
The flashback scenes were shot 3 years earlier than the rest of the film. After many failed attempts at creating a solid story out of just the flashback footage (the original complete script), the story was re-written and the additional therapy scenes were shot, as well as the voiceover tracks.

The "perfect" relationship to the extreme!

Saw this short recently at the Orlando Film Festival for which I was also a part of. You get to see many shorts when you go to festivals like these, some great, some OK, some not so much. But I gotta say that Fairytale Syndrome was one that really stood out.

I guess you could call it a romantic "dark" comedy, if such a category exists. Exploring the "perfect" sexual relationship that may be considered as getting out of hand to some people. The leads are on point and really know how to make your heart melt, or gag, depending on how you view their relationship! Though I think all of us can take away something from these two that we can relate with!

Just a really fun and quirky short film that I'm sure you'll get a kick out of watching! Try and find a place it's showing if you can!
