Experimental documentary short.
This video appears as part of the projection design for the “every.single.one” live performance.
One of the nine emotions (navarasas) described in the ancient Indian text on drama, the Natyashastra, karuna is the rasa of anguish, but also compassion. Closeups of the body and beatific images of a tree are juxtaposed with a layered soundscape comprised of phone calls and conversations with family and medical practitioners documented in the first 72 hours after my cancer diagnosis while navigating the overwhelming information that came with the life-changing news.
Camera: Cherie Sampson & Radim Schreiber
Video & audio post-production: Cherie Sampson
Movement direction: Anjali Tata-Hudson
