A meditative study of a love that blossoms in springtime but must change like the seasons when misfortune strikes in the Swiss Alps.

A Piece of Sky is both beautifully made and a thing of beauty in itself. Every lovely thing you have ever seen on a box of Lindt is here: old chalets and timber barns, snow-capped Alps, grizzled Swiss farmers in jerkins embroidered with edelweiss.

Beyond the Cinerama Dome

A Piece of Sky is about the desperation of the human connection and the disappointment a person feels when that connection doesn’t live up to those promises of safety, security, and love.
