‘Fear in your eyes’ It is a Poetry Film, where footage from home archives is mixed up together, creating multi-layered associations connected with a personal story. The history of lost relations and memories. The focus of this small work is an excerpt from one day in the life of my parents, their wedding day. An elusive moment of happiness. This film is about time, unfulfilled hopes and love. The film’s credits use classic Japanese tanka poetry.
