Synopsis
Spoiler shield

Ashes and Snow, a film by Gregory Colbert, uses both still and movie cameras to explore extraordinary interactions between humans and animals. The 60-minute feature is a poetic narrative rather than a documentary. It aims to lift the natural and artificial barriers between humans and other species, dissolving the distance that exists between them.

“If you come to me at this moment your minutes will become hours your hours will become days and your days will become a lifetime.”
