Diane

Directed by
2018

Diane lives alone in Western Massachusetts, caring for others and always putting herself last. Solitude opens to new levels of perception and being, where past and present collide and where people come and go. Witnessing her life vanishing before her eyes, Diane is confronted with the possibility of forgiveness. (Festival information)

Against the background of a wintery landscape, the film takes us through the last stages of Diane’s spiritual journey. From her exemplary self-sacrifice in the service of the others our attention is turned towards her inner life. Highlighting the tension between guilt and forgiveness, the film visualizes moments of transcendence shining through the routine of Diane’s daily life.
