Still Presence

Synopsis
Still Presence tells the story about my relentless search for my great-grandmother’s hidden burial site. As I unearth the traumatic events of her life, my own experiences of loss, isolation and the will to keep going resurface through the meditative rhythm of digging. The distance that separates my great-grandmother from me seems to evaporate, bringing her into the present to begin again.
