  • The film immerses us in a harsh archetypal landscape, a space of sensory overload, a place of beauty our body is not equipped to perceive or exist within. The figures that inhabit this world are explicitly alien and unknowable.  They appear as automatons, void of sexuality or emotional affect with both animalistic and mechanical characteristics. We see how they are born, roam, hunt, live and die.  The narrative deals with issues of mob mentality and pack hunting, portraying the predatory nature of groups.  The characters are like demons or demi-gods, working in a system that is outside of our own, but linked to it in an abstract way.
