In Praise of Darkness

Elogio a la oscuridad

Adrián Balseca
Ecuador | 2024 | 17 min
Weltpremiere
Sprache : ohne Dialog

Im Mullumica-Tal in Ecuador schürfen Figuren nach Obsidian, einem opaken Vulkangestein. Der Stein beginnt seine Metamorphose und gelangt aus den Felsklippen in die makellosen vier Wände eines Labors, um dort seiner hehren Aufgabe zugeführt zu werden: die Augenprothese des Regisseurs zu ersetzen. Die Geschichte eines Steines und der Weg zur Heilung.
