The Mother   TS-2013 
Mae

Last day of official mourning for a child. Mother receives her final visitors: the guilty parties. Masterfully captured in a single shot.


Masterfully filmed, atmospheric moment. The period of mourning comes to an end at a temple-like funeral chapel. The final visitors are not mourners, but want to buy off their guilt. The mother wants to see a real confession. And money.
The intense emotionality the death of a child evokes is, as it were, sculpted in space while the tension between the mother and the visitors is captured more subliminally by a roving camera.
