Memento Mori
A film by Sebastian-Linda.de – FB: on.fb.me/1xVxHAX – http://ift.tt/LswOwr
_____________________
In my childhood I often could´t sleep. I was scared of going to sleep and never waking up again.
I imagined I´d be buried in a place of darkness, forever and ever, being awake until the end of all days.
_____________________
For the film of Memento Mori I went together with my wife Sophia to visit Giuseppe Spagnuolo in South Italy. He lives there as the last resident in his hometown Roscigno Vecchia which is one of the many lost villages in italy.
We had a great day with him hanging out in the sun, feeding cats and dogs and filming awesome shots with him, never getting tired.
More to come in the Making of…

Transcript:
I have often puzzled and puzzled,
about what it must be like,
to go to sleep and never wake up
to be,
simply not there,
forever and ever.
But we are inclined to have in our mind,
a picture of this
of being shut up in the dark for always and always,
to be kind of buried alive in the blackness
And we think
Ooh this is it
This is the end
And so at death we withdraw
no no no, not that
Not yet
Please!
And you accepted it.
And suddenly something changed
There was a strange feeling that
everything is absolutely clear.
You suddenly see that there isn´t a grain of dust in the whole universe that´s in the wrong place.
The reason we die is to give us the opportunity to understand what live is all about.
Just think
When you opened your eyes on the world, for the first time as a child
How brilliant colors were
What a jewel the sun was.
What marvel the stars.
Memento Mori
Be mindful of death.
Alan Watts
A short video about having too many thoughts.
The subject I chose, over thinking, is something most people deal with at some degree.
We tend to twist thoughts around our head until they lose any connection with reality,
making billions of connections every minute and soaking up information like sponges.
I wanted to share what is going on inside my head by creating a world,
that like my thoughts – is sometimes restless and makes no sense.
