Above Us Only Sky

About This Movie

Above Us Only Sky has this meditative quality that lingers, kind of like the aftermath of a storm. The documentary unfolds through a personal narrative, which is a nice departure from more conventional storytelling. The eruption of Eyjafjalla serves as a backdrop, not just an event, but a catalyst for deep introspection about fate and chance. The visuals are striking, capturing both the beauty and raw power of nature. Pacing feels contemplative, almost meandering, yet it draws you in, allowing you to dwell on the themes of disruption and the unpredictable paths we take. Kleinjan's reflections are poignant, intertwining personal stories that resonate with anyone who has faced the unexpected. It's a distinctive take on documentary filmmaking—subtle, yet profound in its exploration of existence.
