Somewhere Very Near

Whether you believe in an afterlife or not, the love we feel and connections we’ve shared are not lost, they exist in our neural pathways, they are etched into the fabric of our hearts, into who we are. In grief, we are all looking for comfort.

We are seeking solace, a way to make sense of the world now with a gaping hole. Finding ways to stay connected with our “no-shows” is at the heart of this film. 

Writer-director Rachel Fowler’s work work as a grief and loss coach has taught her that this is what people are looking for – how to live with the loss, and take forward the love and strength they garnered from their relationship with their loved one.
