Carry me in

About This Movie

Carry me in is an intimate dive into the filmmaker's complex relationship with insects, captured through a non-narrative lens that's both personal and contemplative. Shot on 16mm, the grainy texture adds a layer of nostalgia, mirroring the filmmaker's journey from a childhood intrigue to grappling with late-stage Lyme Disease. The pacing is reflective, allowing viewers to linger on the details—both the beauty and the darker sides of nature. A distinctive feature is the absence of a traditional narrative arc; instead, it unfolds like a diary, rich with striking visuals and an atmospheric score that almost breathes alongside the imagery. It's a thought-provoking exploration, blending themes of childhood wonder with the harsh realities of illness.
