What I Could Salvage
an experimental short film by Alice Sickler
A melancholy creature roams the aftermath of a devastating storm...
"A wet, introspective film that mimics the sensory intensity of experiencing nature alone."
- Senior Film Capstone
Director's Note
After a series of collective and individual traumatic events, I found myself overwhelmed with emptiness. Life would never be the same again. Still, I find evidence of my life before. But now I must look for signs of spring, and embrace my renaissance.
