The Mourning Of
When grief becomes routine, it’s no longer healing—it’s survival. THE MOURNING OF is a delicate and haunting meditation on loss, directed and written by Merced Elizondo, that captures the rituals we build to keep memories alive. Instead of exploring grief as a single moment of heartbreak, this short film peeks into the quiet, repetitive gestures that define a person trapped between remembrance and recovery. What begins as an empathetic story of mourning slowly turns into a portrait of obsession, showing how even love and sorrow can corrode when left unchecked.
