Write a short summary of what happens in the film.
A narrator poetically talks about spaces and their gravitational beauty, in search of what lies beyond what we see everyday.
Tell the jury anything relevant about the cinematography.
We set our camera to capture the spaces as our heroes. As the narrator says, so were also us, exploring the environment, trying to catch the soul, scent, feel of a space and squeeze it to a second or two.
We wanted to lend the picture a bit of a nostalgic feel, so we used special vintage lenses. Every moment, sweet or bitter, will be a memory. That's how we often evaluate the present and the future.
Light needed to be flowing naturally into the spaces, while making the blacks not too crushed.
Coloring of the film was a pleasure as we did not push the colors, because the light and lenses already lended the highlights and mid-tones a beautiful intimate feel.
