At a distance

About This Movie

So, 'At a Distance' is this intriguing documentary that captures a really unique moment. Shot at Lizard Point in Cornwall, it’s all about these solitary figures signaling 'We Are One' with semaphore flags. There's something haunting about the imagery, especially considering the political backdrop of Brexit and the date it was filmed. The atmosphere is pretty contemplative, almost meditative, as the ocean stretches out endlessly. The pacing is languid, letting you soak in the visual poetry and the weight of the moment. No flashy edits or dramatics, just the stark beauty of the landscape and the quiet determination of the performers. It’s all about connection, isolation, and the yearning for unity, wrapped in a bittersweet tone.
