Free and Uneasy: The First Year Out

In past meetings we have explored the idea of telling narrative stories as filmmakers, but without using film or video footage. Today I ran across just such a story, its title posted above as the title of this blog entry. This short film is an excellent example of compelling storytelling, yet it was created using only stills and audio. Running just under six minutes, I daresay it is a few minutes that can leave you, perhaps ever so slightly, a changed person.
