I borrowed these snow photos from W, who has taken
them some time ago at his brother's farm.
They remind me of 'Silent Light', a movie that has left a
deep impression on me;
the story's very simple, it is about a family man (Johan)
who falls in love with another woman.
At a certain moment Johan, a very religious man,
seeks advice from his father;
they are both men of few words, but after some time, the
father says 'lets go outside and watch the snow'
And that is what they do, they go out and watch the snow.
The film begins with a breathtakingly beautiful sunrise,

The photo with the seal is mine.

ReplyDeletei like the silence what snow brings when it comes and covers the city.
I love the calm and peace of these pictures. I've seen "Silent Light" and it was really impressive to me.
ReplyDeleteThe sunrise is really magnificent-thank you Renilde-(but what happens at the end of the movie?)-

thanks for sharing this piece of beauty renilde...I really needed it.
ReplyDeleteThe passage of time . light , space .......bliss
to caramela: Johan's wife, Ester dies of grief but comes back alive; it sounds ridiculous, but you really have to see the film to view this in the proper context.
ReplyDeleteReygadas says the film is a homage to Dreyer's 'Orded', another story about faith and love; i've never seen Orded.
so beautiful - really beautiful!
