A door-to-door salesman selling bottles of hope discovers a fallen angel who remembers him. A black and white dreamscape set in 1950s Yorkshire.
The story
When an angel stranded on Earth loses his memory, he becomes a door-to-door salesman, offering bottles of hope to a town that no longer believes — in this slow, transcendental , and surreal black and white short film about purpose and remembering who you are. Selby Love (Bill Caple) is driven to sell tiny bottles of hope, but as the world turns away, he starts to lose the hope he once carried. When another angel (Mirren Mack) is sent to find him, Selby is forced to confront what he’s forgotten — and whether hope can survive in a world that no longer wants it. Shot in a minimalist , transcendental style, Selby Love blends spiritual allegory with dreamlike realism to explore the quiet ache of losing purpose and the strange, fragile beauty of remembering it.
