THE INADEQUACY OF LANGUAGE IN LIFE AFTER DEATH

SHORT FILM / VISUAL POEM - CURRENTLY IN POST-PRODUCTION

Running provides us with so many metaphors. Through its movement we’re able to experience truths that are present in every part of life: Knowing when something is going to hurt, but continuing toward the pain. Riding the edge of agony to see what we can uncover. Existing in discomfort but knowing it is not our end. The peace of the aftermath. The gift of perspective.

After my mom died running became where I found solace. I wanted to explore the connection I made between running and grief, which is how I landed on the idea for this project.
