This postdisaster theater is set in an almost supernatural landscape, beautiful and arid. Mountains, desert and lakes stretch out like a glimpse of infinity. Caught in a destructive fire, however, these landscapes find themselves bruised, mutilated and shattered. We see the traces of a metaconflict, with no apparent political or ideological context - a demon of history haunting grandiose but empty spaces. A state of permanent, inexplicable crisis invades the landscape, which becomes the theater of a war, a space scorched by man's weapons and then scorched again by a torrid, all-powerful sun. This video blends the poetry of lunar landscapes with an experimental approach to images of contemporary warfare.
