Land of the Living

Land of the Living follows four families who seek answers on how to shape their solitary lives as they reside in a harsh yet beautiful landscape surrounded by loss and renewal. It is a film that delves into an intimate poetic examination of the inevitable struggle with 'time', mortality, and the delicate balance of life.
