Thresholds
Thresholds is a contemplative documentary that explores the universal experiences of birth and death through the lens of two often-unseen professionals; a Midwife and End of Life Carer.
Framed through the perspective of the director, a visual artist working in abstraction, the film brings together the emotional and spiritual landscapes of these life transitions, revealing the invisible labors of love, compassion, and deep meditative practice and presence behind living and dying.
