Presenting 'a snail's pace'. A documentary but no commentary. No music. No explanations. Nothing to explain. Just observe. An observational wildlife doc! Presenting my first film shot and edited on a smartphone. Filmed handheld. No gimbal or tripod. No additional lens. No external microphone. Simple shots. Straight cuts. Capturing a moment, a movement, a journey. From Trivandrum in Kerala, South India during lockdown (May 2021). When my world shrunk to a house and garden. When time detached itself from the days. When the unnoticed became noticeable. When life calmed down. Like its main protagonist, 'a snail's pace' moves at a snail's pace. Presenting a challenge to the audience to keep pace with the intrepid snail. To slow down.
