Shot on the Arriflex 16 SR for my 16mm Film class at Georgia State University.

16mm Film demands attention- so much so that it almost becomes a character itself. I chose Tchaikovsky’s Swan Lake score because of the slow questioning build to a forceful impact being forced upon the listener. This is similar to our life: full of questions but death always comes in the end. I hope this film makes people consider the choices they make and how those decisions affect this life and the life after death. What or who are you running from? Who or what are you running towards? Are you afraid of death?
