Synopsis:

Reminisce - A Global Warming PSA Film: Ted, an elderly man sits alone in a rundown kitchen as flips through an old photo book, reminiscing his past. In what appears to be a flashback, a young boy runs around and explores a forest on a sunny day with tremendous excitement as if it were his first time in the wilderness. However, as Ted starts to flip through his pages quicker, abnormalities start to occur around the child's universe. With the pace rapidly increasing, we see glimpses of what is in Ted's photo book: tears of newspaper clippings with headlines describing near future climate change effects. With an ultimate goal of raising awareness of how global warming will effect our future generations, bits of hints and foreshadowing unfold in both characters' story lines to conclude by revealing a connection between them.
