Synopsis
A woman portraits her partner, but after his initial refusal, she decides to explore the process of building the trust necessary to be filmed. Through images that capture everyday moments and dialogue with photographic portraits from the past, Permission reflects on how the creation of images manifests the dynamics of our closest relationships. An intimate portrait about connection, memory, disagreements and shared complicity behind the camera.
