The Space Between

Director, Editor, Colorist
Music by Hannah Frances. The album's climax arrives with “The Space Between”, a sweeping exhale of recognition of life's cascade between heaviness and light. Frances sings, “I don’t forgive, I let it live in the space between / what’s gone and what’s given / if there is another way let it move me, if there is a way out let it be through me”. Frances asks herself what healing looks like outside of forgiveness. If the harm is too big to forgive, where does freedom emerge from?
The answer proves to be here, in the space between, present for the love and care that remains, and with a resolve to actualize a new narrative. Frances disentangles herself from the vicious cycle of generational trauma and maladaptive patterns. She chooses light, and in her choosing, teaches us all a new way of unburdening, a way to transfigure our pain and fear into a new embodied wholeness.
