With stylish images and a personal narrator, this film plays on space and time. Rather than clear answers, it provides the viewer with new ideas. A personal story with multiple levels that is easy to recognise.

This film can be seen as a critique of humanity’s dream of omniscience and the yearning to conquer the world. Intense film sequences inside tunnel architecture in Lofoten represent the antagonism between human beings and nature. Strengthened by a voice-over, the images arouse unpleasant sensations, drawing our attention to humanity’s desire and will for power.

We present film series focused on 16 different countries and regions. This section intends to discover and explore different spaces and cultures with the aim to understand the specific regional, political and social circumstances, do reconstruct the emotional and intellectual spécificities of a special region or country. In this critical work we belief it's essencial to prefer films which rufuse, in its form and expression, the retake of sterotype ways of reality restituition, as an act of resistance in the actual period of "globalisation", which inclins to impose one dominating model of culture and habitutes.
