Plot: Stay is a dramatic short film that centers on a teenage girl's struggle to cope with the loss of her sister. She finds it almost impossible to let go, keeping the vision of what once was alive in her mind, and only barely grapples with the idea of moving on. Reality and fantasy clashes and her pyschomachia (Battle or Contest for Man's Soul) begin to tear her apart. Stay asks us to question if it is better to live with the grief that allows us to hold on, or to simply forget and let the pain fade.

Losing my focus.. With everything
First was my eye sight
Then my heart and beat
I wish he was perfect
But with him this can't be
Because he is my poison, poison IV
This love is dangerous dangerous
Got my head spinning spinning out of control, going
everywhere everywhere
This love is dangerous dangerous
Now I’m sorry I had to let him go
I admitted I was in love, in love with ya with ya
Never been sicker sicker from the crazy things you do
Oh woh oh, oh woh oh
