CGiii Comment

Prepare yourselves for something truly special...

This film was submitted...yet, there is no LGBT content. Don't let that put you off.

This is about humanity...and, the few who care.

A slow-moving, detailed portrait of a man immersed in and dictated by loneliness.

A film that relies singularly upon its ending...the dam will burst.

We sobbed...uncontrollably for hours.

Immaculate.

The(ir) Blurb...

Still Life is a poignant, quixotic tale of life, love and the afterlife. Meticulous and organized to the point of obsession, John May (Eddie Marsan) is a council worker charged with finding the next of kin of those who have died alone. When his department is downsized, John must up his efforts on his final case, taking him on a liberating journey that allows him to start living life at last.
