Vidder: ghost lingering

Summary: Lær meg å kjenne dine veie / og gå dem trøstig skritt for skritt
Content notes: This might be difficult to watch if you have lost a child or are sensitive to such storylines; it is an aspect of both the film & the vid. It's not graphic, however, and the resolution is (hopefully) uplifting.

Signed vid here [DW].

Lyrics and English translations can be found at either of the following websites:

http://sevenses.wordpress.com/2008/04/01/about-l%C3%A6r-meg-a-kjenne/
http://www.nettyroyal.nl/marthaari3.html

Both sites tell the story of a man who comes back to his village to find it burned to the ground. Instead of submitting to paralyzing grief he composes this song.

Thank you so much! I'm glad you liked the vid. The film does a wonderful job connecting different types of loss, while also trying to show that there is life after loss, so I'm glad that aspect of the film came across in the vid!
