A dazzling fashion film that pays homage to Virigina Woolf’s most experimental work The Waves, At The Edge Of Things is a momentous achievement in filmmaking. Exploring individuality, the self and community, the film showcases a motley array of suits, sequin-adorned cocktail dresses and layered outerwear, with the footage showcasing each unique look in its own habit. Each setting and look is disparate to the last, yet they are all merged coherently into this marvel of a film.
There are spoken word passages plucked straight from the Woolf’s novel, with the visual accompaniment portraying unique narratives amalgamating one message of celebrating our limited time on earth, establishing our individuality before “everything falls in a tremendous shower, dissolving [us]”.
