She Wishes for the Cloths of Heaven

A lyrical film-poem exploring the pull between self-sacrifice and self-fulfilment. When we have obligations to those we love, how hard is it to follow our dreams?

Based on 'He Wishes for the Cloths of Heaven' by W. B. Yeats, the film uses 8mm documentary and home-movie footage to explore the different stages of women's lives and the pull between obligation and desire.
