Reflections

By Susanne Aichele with 6.8

documentary · Short Films · english

'Reflections' is a quiet conversation with ideas of vulnerability, intimacy with the self, our relationship with the world around us, to name a few. As the narrative covers the entire spectrum of voices, all of them merge into one core idea - an understanding of the human experience.

At the end of the day, each one of us is trying to ascertain our own place in the world, our purpose, the meaning (or the acceptance of the lack of it) of existence, and it is precisely this sentiment that the film invokes.

It achieves the same by employing voices of of painters, puppet makers, people who work in fashion and like to be reminded of the warrior within, but the common thread that connects them all is that they are all creators, people who work with their hands to express and articulate their own truth in their own individual fierce, unabashed manner. The film is mellow, but emphatic and lucid, in its voice, succeeding at conveying to the viewer all that it has set out to at the onset.
