FILM INTRODUCTION


What might define a life fully lived? It’s a question many of us probably mean to ask ourselves. But never do. Not with any tenacity.


Meet Alison. 93. Registered blind. Quietly spirited.


A chance encounter with a city gent wearing a pin striped suit, bowler hat & carrying a rolled umbrella might have gone unnoticed. If she’d been blind to the subtlety of life.


My time with Alison had led me to wonder if we all have a part to play in the life of another.

‘ … Doña Chona seems tired but she isn’t frightened. And by frightened I mean the frightened you see deep in the eyes of most human beings.


A frightened that hides itself well. A frightened that quietly shouts its assumption of isolation, and of loneliness.’

from the monday9am series


There is something so simple yet so profound that it’s quite possible we find ourselves missing it completely.


Morgan spent many successful and raucous years playing in major rock bands. And then one day on an express train from Osaka to Kyoto he was hit by the awareness of this something so simple.


Starring Morgan Fisher.

FILM INTRODUCTION


Poverty appears a complex issue. A minefield of an issue. But what if behind the obvious suspects, the causes lie deeper. And as such poverty becomes a more common experience than we assume.


Perhaps the answers to the experience of poverty lie somewhere within in the relationship between these two possibilities. And, in our ability to give fishing lessons in a particular fashion.

FILM INTRODUCTION


‘ … perhaps true beauty is something that draws our attention at second glance, once the judgement of a first glance has realised it’s mistake.’

FILM INTRODUCTION


Carlos Enrique wasn’t even sure why I was there. Which makes his response even the more extraordinary.


His daughter had just seen twenty, or so, of my films on a friend’s iPhone on the way back from Panama. An invitation for a commission was born. To capture the essence of her father for his sixtieth birthday.


What then happened took me by surprise and a Soul Biography seemed appropriate.

FILM INTRODUCTION


Shooting people - with a camera that is - in a foreign language that you don’t understand encourages an ability to listen beyond the words.


After meeting Feliciano Pop, I found that I didn’t actually need to know what he was saying. There was something else. Something far more powerful. My hope is that you too can see it.

We have a need for certainty. So we presume that we know. That we control. That we’re in control.


But perhaps it’s our assumption that we’ll be here tomorrow that keeps us from our capacity to live.


And from our capacity to smile without reason.

FILM INTRODUCTION


Perhaps this film is about the responsibility we hold for ‘ourselves & our lives’ to listen to the quietest of voices. Perhaps it’s about our responsibility to listen to the voice of others when we know they speak the truth. And then to act.


Perhaps it’s about the possibilities in such changing times. With changes that are often imperceptible and we can’t seem to ‘touch’. But then again, perhaps this short film is simply about a truly extraordinary human being, who reflects something in all of us.
