A Celestial Embrace

Sam Su

A Celestial Embrace is a short cinematic of a couple of college friends located in Upstate New York coming together to have an eclipse-viewing picnic on April 8th, the day of the Great North American Eclipse in 2024. It’s a story about two celestial bodies embracing, but more importantly how many different people around the world embrace the astronomical moment and find meaning in being amongst each other on Earth.
