9/11 Rememberance Video

This short film was shot on 11 September 2010 in New York from 8pm to 11pm and from different angles from the city.
The Tribute in Light is 88 searchlights placed next to the site of the World Trade Center to create two vertical columns of light in remembrance of the September 11 attacks.

Throughout the film the artist puts in the number of victims and countries who lost people reminding people that although the attack took place in America, it affected the world as a whole.
As you can see in the final list, United Kingdom had the most deaths followed by South Korea and then Canada.

The music has no words which I think is to show how speechless everybody was towards the disaster that happened out of the blue.


The lights have caused confusion for thousands of migrating birds, trapping them in the beams, and requiring that the lights be switched off for 20 minute periods to allow the birds to escape.
