All The World's A Stage short film by Catherine Anne Pace Our world is one great stage for all, our time here is spent in cycles. Like leaves, we grow and decay and are born again. Contemporary technology has developed a new universal stage, vast in size, blowing up this old Shakespearean metaphor to a whole new level. All The Worldâs A Stage is an articulation of this connection to the stage in which we play our parts which is ever-expanding, and the cycle of life which has been the same cycle for all time. All The Worldâs A Stage is adapted from William Shakespeareâs As You Like It: Act II, Scene VII. This experimental short is Catherine Anne Paceâs directorial debut film (October, 2020).Experimental

Dad sent me an email yesterday âIâm going to hear the bells tomorrow, let me know if you care to join. Love.â âCan you pick me up on your way from downtown?â âSee you tomorrow at 11:30.â ~ Four movements. We spent the first under direct sunlight looking up at the bright-light sky And the tower, up above. Across from the source Second movement we walked across the parking lot Found a patch of grass Behind this great solid structure In the end, we talked about how fluid the sky flows Juxtaposed adjacent to the manicured trim limestone The wind along the grass and the sounds of street traffic from the bustling Euclid Avenue The Carillon Accompaniments. Laughing joyfully as we both exclaimed the bliss of being set free during that half hour experience Lunch break Backs on the grass, knees up, gazing eyes bridge the crossroad to the infinity up above. ~ *** I figure you are focused on picture for the submission, however with the bells chiming in this video I would like to share that I did ask the Carillonneur, George Leggiero, if I could use this recording of his music today and he gave me permission to experiment. The video & audio used for this video were recorded on my mobile, then edited on the wonky editing software that goes on this thing. Catherine Anne Pace www.c-pace.net (917)828-7719 Sent from Proton Mail for iOS ^Nick Cave sent out a request for phone footage after the release of his new album, Seven Psalms. I had an idea to send video portraying a moment of raging anger from earlier this year, but I held the thought. Fortunately, out of that tunnel, I don't have the wish to share anger in this moment now. Anger will come around again, just as the time to express this anger will come again as well. For now, I am riding out this moment of wonder and excitement. Humankind festers misery and there is a beauty and mutual understanding for it. There are moments I can take the blinders off and immerse in the world beyond circumstance, however, and these moments are also to be cherished in gospel.Experimental
