The Taking
"The Taking" is an introspective and visually stunning film that takes viewers on a profound journey into something that touches us all - death. We explore death as a human embodiment, functioning as a servant of transmutation, rather than an agent of pain. This would suggest that, perhaps we don't actually lose anyone, they simply expand into forever form.
Through four key elements: fire, earth, wind, and water, four lives make their transition, allowing viewers to expand their perspective when it comes to the "exit" of a human life.
​
Art is a powerful medium that is the only language we all speak. Why not use it to heal? We invite you to join us in creating a powerful cinematic piece that will not only shift the world of cinema, but shift many hearts as well.
