Saffron Mourning

2005/2020 — “Saffron Mourning is an exploration of contrasting metaphors and sensibilities. The film illuminates a passionate canvas of color in combination with the dreary backdrop of winter. The waves of flowing saffron offer an array of potential emotions, including pleasure, happiness, and bliss. Conversely, the ripples of frost and shadow hint at an obscure outcome for the strolling participants” (Paul Echeverria). (Screened 2/17/22 at MoMA as part of Millennium Film Workshop: “Nighttime” NYC event).
