Still Life tells real stories you don’t usually hear this closely - a collection of intimate audio portraits brought to life through immersive sound and documentary storytelling. This season explores different forms of loss and grief - navigating a breast cancer diagnosis through an audio diary, accompanying a parent on their final journey to Dignitas or family estrangement. These are stories about love, identity, resilience and what it means to keep going when life takes an unexpected turn. Lived, intimate moments rarely spoken aloud.
