Immortalby Neil Goslin
œImmortals is designed to capture the essence of life. We see black and white images. People being born, loving, living, and dying. With slow motions and a black and white world we are spellbound as the eyes of our characters are in vivid color. We see the color spread to the eyes of their children as they pass on the energy of their souls to their posterity. Then we see them resurrected, beyond death.
