Scissors is a story that oscillates between the desire to experience life to its fullest and to end it all.
Casper is severely depressed when he meets Cleo, a girl who just might be his reason to stay alive. As her morbid curiosities become stronger, he must navigate between his morality and his need for her. Scissors is a mildly absurdist meditation on being alive versus merely surviving.
Existential pseudo-deep whatever bullshit aside; in the end it's about death. And the romanticism, fear, absurdity and amusement that surrounds it. It's kind of like how you wake up right before you die in a dream.
