Written by Mike Ambs

A film by Tynan DeLong

Shot entirely on a Hi-8 camera, the same camera from Tynan's childhood, the short is an intimate, lo-fi character sketch of a photographer, mother, and widow living alone in Eugene, Oregon.

Mixing home videos with intensely honest and open conversations, "Vonnie" is a raw meditation on loneliness, grief, and finding strength in your loved ones after a devastating loss.

Q&A with Tynan DeLong

It started with a Hi-8 camera. It was the first camera I had as a teenager and so I got one off eBay in 2017 to try and make shorts that captured that same "anything goes" spirit of the videos I made as a teen.
