Waste Time: A Complicated Love Story

Incoming Editorial·Reviewed June 13, 2026

Through a series of intimate vignettes, we follow a queer couple, a Black woman and an Indian woman, as they experience the beauty and fragility of love. From the spark of their first date to the quiet tenderness of their first kiss, and finally, the ache of their first fight, their story unfolds in fragments of memory and emotion. The film culminates in a music-driven sequence where one woman reflects on what was lost and questions whether love is worth returning to. Blending narrative cinema with music video elements, this short explores the rhythm of heartbreak, memory, and rediscovery through a deeply personal lens.
