“Sonder” is the profound realisation that each person you meet is living their own life, with their own personal worries, pains, pleasures, ambitions - the same as you, in a sense, but also as intricate and as different as could be imagined.

It brings forth the idea that there are millions of stories happening all at once, around each other, oblivious and contained from one another. Sonder opens our eyes to what we can’t see - that there is so much more to each of us than meets the eye. It grants us the chance for connection with others in a way that truly allows us to feel and empathise. And when we begin to experience it and eventually live with it, we begin to see others the way we want to be seen.

Each whispered story, each silent sigh, becomes a melody that resonates within us, teaching us the symphony of human existence. It is then that we discover the beauty of our shared humanity, forging bonds of love that transcend the boundaries of time and space.

Who is Reflections of Life? We are Justine and Michael (previously known as Green Renaissance). We use our passion for filmmaking and our love of storytelling, to remind our audience of one simple truth – that we are all human. The more that we understand and believe in this interconnectedness, the more we will treat ourselves, one another, and planet earth with a greater sense of compassion.
