In-Visible was a result of conversations and observation.
The documentary opens with the idea of reflection makers, how bit by bit everything we see has been put together, and how we, as people, simply see through it over time. It takes viewers through this world of reflections within this space, but the idea is more rooted in emotions, history, nostalgia, and memories. The narrative of the film goes through a day, along different phases and with different mediums. A major objective of the film is to create an eye for observation through reflections. The film encapsulates everyday magic that appears mundane.
The film also incorporates the subjectivity of self reflection as reflections serve as perceptions and interpretations at personal levels.
Welcome to the world of reflections.
Director Statement
"In-visible" isn't just a title, it's a feeling. It's the frustration of noticing beauty just out of the corner of your eye, dissolving into the surrounding, lost in what we call mundane. It's the realization that the everyday world teems with unseen magic, waiting for someone to truly see it.
This film is a deeply personal exploration born from my own hyper-sensitivity. Clinical ADHD and a heightened awareness of peripheral movement constantly pull my focus, yet it was this very challenge that led me to a hidden world of beauty. Editing late one night, surrounded by the luminous glass walls of my studio, I became fixated on a fleeting reflection. It was a revelation – a secret choreography of light and movement invisible to the unobservant eye.
"In-visible" is a quest to share this invisible world. It's a call to awaken the senses, to
appreciate the subtle emotions and breathtaking beauty that flicker just beyond our grasp.Through a tapestry of sound and image, the film delves into the unseen, revealing the extraordinary hidden within the ordinary.
The biggest challenge wasn't capturing this hidden world, but translating it into a cohesive narrative. Experimentation led me to explore the power of sound design, crafting a subconscious ambience that evokes the emotions I felt during those moments of discovery.
A discovery which is very unique to everyone. Light, too, became a key narrative element, dictating the film's structure – a single day, mirroring the ebb and flow of natural light that creates the ever-changing reflections.
"In-visible" is an invitation to see the world anew. It's a reminder that true beauty often lies not in the grand gestures, but in the quiet, everyday moments waiting to be noticed.
