Worlds Apart is an observation of low flying aeroplanes in London, long distance travelling, and my experience with the death of my grandmother. Scenes of aeroplanes and airports are juxtaposed with funeral proceedings to draw relationships between aeroplanes and a temple-like boat where the coffin resides in, as vehicles we occupy through life. In the film’s climax, audio from the cremation overlays a scene of a take off, with sounds of fireworks popping signifying a new beginning.
