The Mother of Beauty Trailer (2017)

Trailer for the short film The Mother of Beauty.

A new mother struggles to reconcile her affinity for death with the life she's brought into the world.

In The Mother Of Beauty a single mother-to-be lives in isolation on the edge of the wilderness. She makes a living through her work with vulture culture: using the remains of dead animals to create art and memorialize the lives that once were. As she attempts to overcome the struggles of parenthood, the forces of life and death pull her in opposing directions, and she must find a way to reconcile the two before they tear her apart.
