‘The Last Shadow’. Short film in a collaboration with filmmaker Prem Jyothis. Lisbon, Portugal. 2023. Selected frames.
Synopsis:
Amidst ruins that hold signs of a distant civilization, the solitary Shadow aimlessly spends time amusing oneself with found objects. An occurrence breaks the seemingly eternal, repetitive pattern – an existential crack which causes a strangely shaped fire to appear. The Shadow, innocently curious about this unfamiliar phenomenon, begins to interact with fire, not realising that it is also the path to transcendence. Gradually and exponentially, with each touch of fire, the Shadow’s skin dissolves until it is time for a new being to emerge.
This film is currently taking part in film festivals.
