SHADOW OF A CLOUD
Portrait
A priest is summoned to perform a blessing. Alas, during deathbed prayers and conversations in the kitchen, the focus shifts from the dying woman to the personal sensitivities of the grieving relatives. An intimate encounter with death always harbours potential for conflict. Back in the parish office, the congregation itself is revealed as nothing but another business unit. Death too has been thoroughly economized it seems.
