Killing the Rock | Documentary Short
Defined in the DarkThis piece was inspired by a talk given by a friend of mine, Jake Sweetman, on the nature of pain and loss as a context for purpose.The poem was written by my wife, Jackie Viramontez and read by Micah Fitzgerald.Shot in downtown Los Angeles over the course of one evening.The film explores the growth that comes from pain, within a relationship.Music by Luke Atencio, “Long Distance"---We shy away from darknessAvoid painFear the unknownStill... it calls usWe crave growth without pruningStrength without bruisesTruth without fire to burn away our blindnessThe pain A rite of passage A sign that ‘who we were’ is gone and ‘where we want to go’ has arrivedIf only we muster the courageSurrender To the birth canal of painA privilege to be reborneven if it requires a little bloodAre you afraid of the darkness?Or more afraid of never being brought into the light?
