Into a starry sky full of coloured spots! The propellers have been revved up. Accompanied by the drone and roar of the engine, the aircraft takes off.

The tank is filled with millions of continuously flowing images for an infinite number of combinations. But who controls the projected flight path?

SIN ROSTRO

Lucina Annulata

Sunny. Semantic sequences guide the gaze, a gaze that is sometimes raised, propelled downwards, then too high or motionless in front of an unrecognizable and yet so familiar vision.

ENTRANCE

This is an installation documentary created in 2015.

A lot of things happened after 2015, and the film was re-edited. The current version has almost used the best materials of that year.
