Falling In Love
Last May, Maja Fernqvist was one of ten directors selected by National Geographic to promote their first scripted series, “Genius” about Albert Einstein’s life. 10 Days of Genius celebrated Einstein’s innovativeness and inspired audiences to explore their imaginations and find their inner genius.
Each of the 10 films was based on one of Einstein’s quote. Maja picked, “Falling in love is not at all the most stupid thing that people do – but gravitation cannot be held responsible for it.”
A man and a woman are falling in love. They are silhouettes in an infinite space about to connect. Watch the fantastical moment of love in this short film that takes place as two people begin the process of “Falling in Love.”
