Shown through a poetic lens, the film tells the story of a woman’s final farewell with her grandfather. She is grieving and her memories unfold in front of her eyes as she takes her regular “journey” to the well. The magpies evoke the memories connected with her grandfather.

Low Season
Chris Lake
6 min
UK
Low Season can be read as a film that looks at the struggle for identity within a modern capitalistic society. It asks questions about what constitutes this identity, and what challenges we face when we begin to pull away some of the imposed values of systemic ideology. Low Season equally represents both beauty and discontent. A battling of opposing ideas can be felt in the director’s mind and within the entire piece, each struggling for dominance. All working to help deepen the films texture. A film portraying less about political ideology but experience and complete truth.
