Ask an elder

digital

A short, moving film for the kindness.org charity. The film depicts the growing trend of loneliness amongst the elderly by highlighting “The Sound of Silence”. This creates an inescapable and uncomfortable sense of alienation for the audience through long held shots and poignant sound design.

Production sound and sound design by Bent Ear.

Directed by Mark Jewitt.

Produced by Sarah Jarvis.
