"So I was faced with this new vision...

...but that was not a flight for my wings
except that my mind was stuck in a flash
in which what it desired came to it.

At this high point imagination failed:
But already my desire and my will
Were being turned like a wheel, all at one speed.

By love which moves the sun and
the other stars" - Dante Alighieri, La Divina Commedia

The third in a trilogy of films completed during my final year at University (2006)

This film asks what happens after death but before entry to heaven, if such a place exists.
