A relationship is composed of moments. Some are filled with conversation; others are quiet and uncertain. A wife so angry that she can’t speak and a husband overwhelmed with frustration venture into the forest. Pitching a tent amid the trees, with none of the city’s distractions to hide behind, a couple works through unspoken injury to once again connect.
waltz submerges us in nature: a light rain on a calm lake, sunlight filtering through swaying leaves, a frog in a puddle. Filmed in Wisconsin by Zinema Manager Johnathon Olsen, waltz shows us the remarkable difference between the woods and the town, and between a couple in turmoil and in tranquility.
