Aleem Khan & Alexander Dynan have done a wonderful job of photographing this intimate and tender story in the most fitting way. Slow, sweeping camera moves capture the gradual reveal of the second life and they are not shy to leave the camera locked off when it fits. The cinematography is subtle and tender, with soft daylight contrasting with some harsher shadow where the emotion fits. The framing is perfect as we are drawn to certain elements in frame that helps us build the picture of this second life gradually and sensitively.
The image is complemented fantastically by a wonderful score, delivering heart wrenching moments at the perfect points in the story.
This film will leave you questioning what it means to love and how we can learn to accept and forgive.
The final shot captures the essence of the story as we see the camera inch away from the cliffs leaving the affected three behind in the wake of the death, making us consider the husband/fathers journey and how this space could be a metaphor for the relationships left behind and how our tiny bodies and lives scale into insignificance against the beauty and wonder of nature.
