By Wow, I can hardly stand how beautiful this short is. Made by filmmaker Michael Langan for the 2011 SXSW film festival, Heliotropes visualizes a poem by Brian Christian of the same name.
Described as documenting “the parallel goals of man and nature, through the most primitive and sophisticated means, to simply stay in the light,” the short is a stunningly lyric look at life – great and small – and its pursuit of sunlight.
