Dearest Ghost (Estonia) by Margaret Mäses
How to deal with the overwhelmingly unbearable absence of someone who was an integral part of your life for a long time?
When the physical embodiment of unconditional love has transformed into nothing but memories, a ghost, it might be wise to try and make friends with this new everyday companion. Dearest Ghost is a poetic journey through the inner world of a grieving filmmaker who tries to find solace in talking to her Ghost. Different stages of grief are visually linked to seasonal changes in nature. The filmmaker finds reflections of her mindscape in the surrounding scenery and wildlife.
Running time: 00:14:46
