This film was made for non commercial purpose and for the love of art in order to combine cinematography, dance and music in a unique film.
Two years ago, I felt inspired to make a video about dance, I have met Lilit who is an incredible actress and dancer and I found this music composed by max Cooper, which is a visionary artist that I have been following for years. I felt the call to create something and it was such an inspiration for me to introduce such a great acting and dancing into the musical world of Max Cooper.
The anecdote is that after filming and editing this film, I had a creative block as I wanted to improve it and develop more the narrative so this film has been left aside for almost 2 years now. This is for me a big learning about surrender and allow things to not be perfect and releasing a project that is already made.
Thanks to Lilit for being patient and for her outstanding performance in this film. That was truly incredible to create that with you.
Big Thanks to Max for allowing me to use his music to create this film and fro continuing to inspire me with his musical creation.
