Shadow Remains

Today, I watched a video called A Shadow Remains by Phillip Toledano on Mediastorm.  The video explores how people deal with the deaths of their family members.  Family deaths has become an important issue in our culture due to the high number of deaths in today's world.  Death is irreplaceable.  Once people die we cannot bring them back.

In this video, Toledano shows how the death of a family member can change a persons life.  A Shadow Remains shows images of how people grow up and when there gone everything is different.During the film the filmmaker was saying how your life can change in a blink of an eye.  He was also saying that when there gone everything is not the same your life and your views on the world change.


To me this video is important because I lost someone who is very important to me.My dad died on October,17,2007 from cancer. Losing my father was like losing a part me of that can never be replaced. This videos uncovers the feelings that many people who lose a loved one have but they dont know how to express it.  It shows how at one moment in your life you can be happy but that happiness can just change almost overnight.  Death is a fact of life but still painful.
