Antoine Boucherikha, Fabienne Giezendanner / Switzerland, France / 15 min / Animation
No dialogue

It's a scorching hot day. Your car is broken down and you're thirsty. You have no choice but to take refuge in the forest, which is also in distress because of the heatwave. You set off animated sequences in real time, translating invisible messages from trees, such as the vascular system that carries water, vibrations, scents from volatile particles that are carried by the wind, and communication flows through root systems. This sensorial approach allows you to empathize with the trees and to communicate with them without using words.

Format: VR

Development stage: in development
