    ive experienced both the internally, manically miserable silence as well as the comforting, warm silence amongst friends, strangers and loved ones
    beautiful visuals and the voice, effects and music threaded it all together so elegantly. so touching

    Very haunting yet comforting short. Loved the use of color and feel. I really liked the scene where the man goes into the ocean and it "felt" like he was just floating. Really strong
