Excellent but underrated film
Kaydan Christian
A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

Yes, the images are beautiful but Yes, these beautiful images are symbolic of humans trying to control nature for their own purpose.Exotic animals are beautiful when they are wild and in their natural habitats and without humans swirling around. When you train elephants in a circus to obey you, it becomes disgraceful and disgusting. How many takes were necessary to obtain the "picture perfect" images of a dancer and a bird flying above? How many takes does it take to have 5 elephants moving together at the same time? A lot!Most animals in that "movie"/artistic performance have been domesticated even if their nature is to be wild and sometimes ferocious. We're not talking about cats and dogs here but about animals usually living in the wild.Controlling animals for the pleasure of humans had always disgusted me.

Simply mesmerizing images and music. The closest to floating in a dream.Ashes and Snow is like the moment Universe came into being. As if attempting to fathom the cosmos. It is my go to movie for meditation on being. Inspires the life within and ultimate freedom. For any human that needs to be reminded of how precious the moments we have on earth are, this is a must see. The way of coexisting portrayed, encourages the forward motion.Be it in work or life, I see this as a hymn to uncomplicated. At least the way I like to see life unfolding on this planet.

Ashes and Snow is a love letter to his beloved written on a film that unfolds a legacy of beauty in timeless moments. The photography and underwater filming demonstrates the excellence of the arts and craft at work and artist is both Nature and co-existent man. The poetic wall of sound and song blending in the pictorial landscape slows time making it stand still as the motion becomes e-motion. Gregory Colbert has created a work of art in the truest sense of the word. There is an earnestness in the quiet voice reaching out to stop the clock to somehow hold time as he presents the gift of his soul's eye. He asks her to burn the letters upon the snow and read the song upon his heart. Oh that each of us/those viewing would have an abiding love to create such a masterpiece.

What a piece of Art! a real masterpiece. That was the first thing i said after watching this film, i even paused a lot of times just to enjoy the beauty of the shot in front of me. To me; it's a film about life or the world as i would like it to be, it really takes you away from all the chaos, the traffic, the rush and all what's forming our modern life as we know it, and puts you in a piece of heaven, giving u an insight on how humans can live bound to other creatures in harmony, real harmony and how it really feels like to be free and really enjoying the beauty of this world. i so can't wait to see Gregory Colbert's new film.
