Death and the Lady

Living in an isolated cottage with her pet cats and a dog, an old lady knits quietly, surrounded by her photographic memories. When one night her home is visited by a dark apparition, the dog resolves to protect it’s master, in this lovingly observed short about life, death and acceptance. ‘… and the life of man, solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short’ (Hobbes, Leviathan, 1651). Lines of naked pink creatures wait patiently in line for their turn at the top of a vertiginous rock tower. But this balance gets undermined when one of them whimsically decides to do their own thing.
