Movie Synopsis
What are the influences of planets and constellations all about?
It seems apparent that from the list of factors describing planetary influence on the earth
gravity deserves primary attention. Indeed, every solar planet specifically impacts earthly
life processes. The influence of solar planets upon terrestrial objects is cyclic in nature.
It's a very well known fact that tides and ebb-tides occuring in earthly rivers, seas and
oceans are originated by lunar gravitation to the earth.
People, too, are influenced by the phenomenon of cosmic gravity on the physical level
of their existance as well as in terms of their conscious activity. All terrestrial events occur
by way projection that comes from the cosmos. I consider any sort of events as actions
which, per se, must result from original provoking action. The impact of cosmic gravity
on the earth could be deemed as such original force or action.
The Gravity Life movie is based upon the notion of dialogue that reveals a form of gravity
in man. Having drifted for a long time in an open ocean, the movie's key character is trying
his best to make it to the shore in order to survive. He's unconsciously lead by the power of
gravity, that is to say his desire for life.

2007 Film
Everybody is familiar with the sense of fear. Despite this fact the nature of anxiety and fear remains
unclear for psychologists. Some attribute the essense of anxiety to human helplessness, others
merely describe innate discord as a result of threatened security, still others emphasize
disintegration of human personality as it encounters a contoversy. So when does a person fear?
It is the unknown that primarily makes one fear. There is a gap between our current condition and
that which is to occur in a minute; the gap is full of uncertainty. Man is afraid of what the future has
in store for him. This is why people have a propensity to wanna be “confident in their tomorrow.”
Sometimes entire societies start longing for a certainty and get talking about the need
“they have in a strong arm, ” bringing about a type of dictatorship. There is another kind of fear.
It has to do with so called fear of separation: a child is afraid to be parted from their mother, a lover
fears to lose their loved one and every one is afraid to be cast out of the world where everything is
so familiar and comfortable.
