Climber & SeleneRow
Hey SeleneRow, ever wonder if a film could really capture the silence of a high summit, or if it’s all just sound and light?
Sure, but silence at a summit is a void, not a soundtrack. A film can paint the emptiness with light, but the real power comes from the pause between the words, the space people feel when nobody says anything. Light makes it pretty, silence makes it real.
I get that, Selene. When you’re up on the ridge, the world folds into one quiet breath. The pause feels like a breath you take before the next step, not just a visual cue. That’s what makes the climb real.
Exactly, that pause is the film’s unsung hero, not a dramatic beat but the real rhythm of a mountain. It’s the breath you take before the next step, not a cue on a storyboard.
Sounds like you’re seeing the mountain the way I do, Selene—quiet, almost unspoken. That pause is where the real climb happens. Just keep that breath steady and the rest will follow.
