Das Licht der Stille

I made this movie over the course of two weeks in order to apply for a German university. The film was to be based on the topic “Das Licht der Stille“ which translates to “The Light of Silence“. The movie evolves around a monologue written and recorded by myself focusing on how small we as human beings are and that our lives really do not matter in the grant scheme of things. I shot it all by myself, which is why the sound changes quite a bit from scene to scene. I set up the camera and acted in front of it with only a rough idea of how my voice would sound on tape.
