’HOPE’, a film by Rukmini Vijayakumar

“Hope” A new beginning is always infused with ‘hope’. Life is full of moments that we believe to be ‘beginnings’ only because of the presence of hope. The birth of a child, the first day at school, one’s first job, a new house, a new partner, a wedding, reconciliation after an argument and even the end of a relationship is often considered as a ‘fresh start’. A physical symbol of these moments of hope is the flower. It is repeatedly used across cultures in times of reconciliation, celebration, prayer - all moments of ‘hope’. The films attempts to capture the emotion of these beginnings.
