Short Film Captures "A Life On Facebook"

A life story told through the social networking site’s interface.

A Life On Facebook is a classic modern coming of age story told entirely through the Facebook profile interface. Boy joins Facebook, boy finds friends, boy gets drunk and posts about hangover, boy lists his relationship status as “in a relationship”, boy gets dumped after a Facebook of him kissing another girl surfaces, boy goes back to being “single,” and so on. It’s the best and worst moments of a life captured in the digital time capsule that is a Facebook profile page. Now, instead of snapshots, we can have screengrabs and status updates to commemorate all those important moments. Is this all our lives really amount to? (Don’t answer that.)
