Wandering Wandering with a sun on my back
The tone of this film is existential, contrasting with the hyper concentrated computer-generated visuals.
We are presented with shimmering human representations within dwellings that cannot be escaped. These dwellings will be set in landscapes that oscillate between dystopian and utopian scenery. Objects pulsate, morph and melt into each other producing an amorphous representation of pain and distress.
