THE WAKE
Film Description:
Adrift on an ocean of memory, what is a life well lived?
The Wake is an adaptation of acrobatic theatre company Acrojou's touring work work, All at Sea. A meditation on death and what gives our lives meaning, the summer tour of All at Sea was cancelled at the last minute due to injury, so we used the remainder of the rehearsal time to dream up, write and shoot this short film instead. It is about impermanence and letting go.
