‘Lay Me by the Shore’ By David Findlay

Introducing a young cast of first-time actors, Lay Me by the Shore follows a week in the life of Noah, a high school senior in his final days of school as he comes to terms with his best friend’s passing.

Nick Kush: I’m always thankful for teen-centered stories that are refreshingly honest, and aren’t overly self-conscious about recreating the lingo and style of the generation they’re attempting to depict. Lay Me by the Shore is a perfect example of this, utilizing hazy, intimate photography to illustrate the suffocating effects of teen trauma without ever becoming too heavy-handed.

And for director David Findlay, this short is just the beginning as he and the rest of the cast are working on adapting Lay Me by the Shore into a feature down the road.
