SISTER MOTHER LOVER CHILD
-
Synopsis
Logline:
A house of women adjusts to life in the aftermath of an event unnamed.Statement:
It is spring yet all is coloured by a season of grief. A child dances, the grapevine ripens. We press our ears to the glass and hear singing from afar. Suspended, together, we are an unlikely constellation. I hold the frame until I find the form. Sister mother lover child. -
