synopsis

A short experimental film from the gaming environment. The tracker reaches a place that has been altered by human activity. The surrounding landscape resembles cold Nordic scenery, it's foggy and there’s no sign of anyone around. The night slowly turns into a dreamlike expedition into the depths of the cave. Here and in other works, the author is fascinated by conscious contact with the environment, the mystique of the brownfield, and the rediscovery of our relationship with the places around us.

(FAMU/ director's text)
