DON'T LET ME FALL TOO FAR

A unique live music and silent film experience. Performed by Canada's award-winning one-woman orchestra, Rozalind MacPhail. Moody vocals, electrifying flute loops and driving electronics reminiscent of Pink Floyd, Mazzy Star and New Order. Raven Blue’s film tells a timeless story of self-discovery experienced by a young woman navigating her way through a vulnerable period in her life. She’s haunted by strange visions guiding her to unfamiliar places as she explores the expansive city of industrial giants, natural wonders and aging Victorian neighbourhoods. Haunting, lonely, dreamy and deeply honest. Filmed in Saint John, New Brunswick, Canada.
