A Hard Rain

The day the last living hostages came home, filmed from inside the crowd. No interviews, no captions — faces, flags and a clock that had been counting for 737 days.

Where the camera looks

The camera stays on the crowd, not the screens. The film is built almost entirely from people watching — the news arrives on their faces before it arrives in words.

Holding the shot

Shot in a single day and cut to one piece of music. Shots are held long enough for each face to finish its thought; the countdown clock appears once.
