‘I have made this film so that your senses can relax between real films’ - the animation’s director says in her invitation to this exceptional, soothing screening. Black figures are dashing through green, evenly-mowed lawns, turning into animals. Calming sounds of nature – flowing water, chirping insects, singing birds – hum in the background. Calm frames, plenty of greenery and geometrical shapes help viewers feel detached from the reality for a moment. Under the pretext of a meditation session, the director draws their attention to incessant human interference in the natural world.
