This short film expresses the journey of life using the human form at it's rawest, changes in lighting, and positioning of the body.
Life begins in the womb. Then one is born. We are helpless, depending on someone else to take care of us. This stage is shown by putting the body in the fetal position. Red lighting is used to create a warm glow as though one is in the womb.
Then one starts to grow. After some time one can stand on their own and they venture out into the world and start a life on their own. This stage is shown in different standing poses. The lighting is white and strong illuminating most of the body.
Then one starts to grow old. The body whithers and grows weak. In this stage the human form is shown falling to the ground. The lighting has gone dim. The face can not be seen. It is hidden in shadows. The shadow gross until death finally comes.
The body is now at its most vulnerable. Lifeless and limp without any power.
