Surrender
Directed / written by David Reis and produced by Alessandra Horn, the short Surrender crosses the dense and the sublime in a visually contemplative way, in search of inner dialogue.
The film approaches subjective and contemplative scenes in a meditative way, and brings us a reflection on what the loss and absence of someone important brings.
