The series “On hold” talks about loneliness, sadness, resilience and support between the queer and LGTB+ community. It shows individuals that we perceive as fragile as all humans are, and also resilient as only some of them are. They are portrayed alone and sometimes tenderly accompanying each other, part of the same network of care and need for affection, symbolized through the harnesses they wear. The series presents clean, well-lit spaces in which light plays. The color palette is sober, contained, used with care in order to give accent when it's required.
