Selby Love

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.

Directed by Alexander Papachristou, Selby Love leans on a strong ensemble — Bill Caple, Karen Henthorn, Louis Landau — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2025.
