About Cemetery of the Absurd

A Bit of Background

Can you mourn something that never exists? What does it mean to miss someone? 'Cemetery of the absurd' is a poetic/observational documentary directed by Reuben Chippeck exploring the unexpected beauty associated with the section of the cemetery designated to stillborn children. This section of the cemetery is the only section which forces people to mourn the future - feel sad about what could  have been not what has already happened. It begs speculative questions about human emotion - can we mourn a life that hasn't been lived?
