ERIK REESE A SHORT FILM ABOUT LETTING GO This cinematic vignette explores various shades of letting go through the human interactions of four unique individuals and how this difficult act opens a path toward growth, love and forgiveness. A FILM BY SABI Letting Go is the result of an interdependent film collaboration among several artists that worked together in a safe atmosphere where creative exploration was encouraged at every level of the filmmaking process. Through dramatic improvisation, the cast were empowered to find their voice and use their own words wherever possible under the collaborative guidance of the director. The result is mostly unscripted and in-the-moment and reveals a more honest experience for the characters and filmmakers behind them. Letting Go is an artistic labor of love and took deep sacrifices and personal investment. Our attribute of a film by SABI honors this journey taken by the filmmakers and actors to achieve what no individual could have done alone.

this is the film my cousin directed.. cool!!!
Great portrayal. There have been a couple of times in my life where I had to “let go” and that’s exactly how it is…”just close the door and walk away”.

the camera’s search for focus is a a visual reflection of the characters’ search for stability, for growth, for love. it unifies the content of the film with its form and deepens the experience for a viewer who is sensitive to such things.
oh! i get it now. thanx for explaining. is just a visual thing. listen i have the d90. and i know it is hard to keep the focus on an srl. that is why i use lenses that have a max aperture of 3.5. just to keep a safe depth. but if this is intentional, thanks for clarifying. keep the good work.
focus!
music is quality. Good work/
