Cocoon: Beyond The Light
Beyond the light is a fashion documen- tary depicting the work of Italian pho- tographer Rossano b. Maniscalchi. This documentary pays homage to his most iconic photograph, Cocoon. The film de- picts the creative process behind the making of this image. It is a simple yet poetic story of a master and his muse at work. Beyond the light is not a reproduc- tion of the existing art, more so an ab- stract interpretation of how this artistic moment might have felt.
