THE NIGHT PLAYS TRICKS is influenced by the lyrics of Bob Dylan's 1966 song VISIONS OF JOHANNA as well as the ever-elusive concept of one's own personal perpetuity. To that end, the short refers to a famous, surreal Rene Magritte painting (man looking in the mirror) and Albert Einstein's theory on the hypersphere (if you stare into infinity all you will see is the back of your own head). In THE NIGHT PLAYS TRICKS, it's distilled into a 'proxy love triangle' concentrating on one man and two women.
