Ape and Furious
This project was one of my best laughs.
Context : in 2022, i was working in the same factory as my ex-bf. At first, the atmosphere was pretty friendly… Until one day he started acting unpleasant. So, i blocked him, because tbh i had better things to do. One summer morning, my coworkers and I started our shift at 5am because of the heat, even though the doors usually open at 6:15am.
That morning, I suddenly saw my ex show up absolutely furious, screaming at me like a rabid animal. I just stood there like: 👁️👄👁️
The whole thing was so ridiculous that I later told the story to my Jurassic World Alive friend group… but they didn’t understand anything (I’m terrible at explaining stories).
So instead of trying to explain it again, I decided to show them.
The dialogues and scenes are faithful to the real event.
Filmed over 3 days during work breaks, edited in 2 days using CapCut.
“Ape and Furious” is a reference to my ex’s favorite movie… With a little Aper twist.
Oh and i promise, usually i’m an extremely chill person. But i can also be pretty teasing when someone messes with me. Unleash the raccoon!!
