I saw this on the TGR site, and fell in love with it immediately. After 5 minutes it started to feel long, but that made me love it even more. Walking or sliding in the mountains has a way of bending time. Watching the clouds move, the shadows stretch, and the sun descend can be hypnotically soothing. Filmmaker Lois Patino was able to capure that feeling.
