| . | A woman enters the picture, in the background is the sun, she goes towards the sun and kisses it, as if it were a rare flower. End. Solar Kisss is a brief homage to transiency. It reminds us that we can’t embrace nature, and yet are indissolubly a part of it. With melancholy pleasure we become aware that there is truth even in the greatest cliché–and beauty. |
