A Minute’s Silence

What happens when we pause for a minute? What fills the space that is created?

We gathered a group of people together and filmed them all for one minute.Those who asked for direction were told simply to meditate on the word ‘silence’.

Some were bold, some squirmingly uncomfortable, others bored. But each face told a story.
