MEMENTO MORI
A SHORT FILM BY NINASCHIENA
SYNOPSIS
"Do you fear death? Don ́t be frightened..."
A boy spends hours on a busy holiday-beach.
His impressions and thoughts intertwine to a current perception, that is concerned with transience.
The cinematic essay Memento Mori aims to understand life and death as a unit and questions the fear of death.
DIRECTOR`S NOTE
The movie arose out of a deep feeling, when I got confronted with loss and it represents the digestion of the sudden experience that life can end in a moment. At first I wanted to use every second in my life and fullfilled it with all I could give. After a time I found out that living with a strong power could also be to much.
It is about a balance between grabbing life with both hands and just letting life revolve.
If I touch death in some moment, I feel that life is always present.
Although I still do not know, whether I fear about the process of dying, I believe and feel that if I embrace death, I get fullfilled with the flow of life.
