Where should we take cover?
Whether under the straw
Whether under the roof
We have fear everywhere!
Radek Wysocki
Beyond the seven lakes, beyond the seven hills, beyond the seven forests, stretches a seemingly idyllic land.
The landscape is flat, monochromatic and rustic.
A flat, monochromatic, rustic landscape, and in it - as if by magic - an unexpected encounter happens three times.
The first time, when from a fairy-tale flying carpet, we see a lone animalistic figure in the thicket.
The second time - when a rousing animal herd unexpectedly collides with otherworldliness and magically aligns itself with it.
The third time - when the animal herd unexpectedly collides with otherworldliness and magically aligns itself with it.
For the third - and last - time, when a human enters the orderly, graceful world of nature.
What is the difference between the animals' relationship with each other and the human-animal relationship? - ask the creators of the Polish Dance Theater's sixth choreographic film project directed by Iwona Pasinska.
In which interdependence can one see innocence, carelessness and curiosity, in which bestiality, annihilation, the burden of domination?
What happens when a human individual interferes with the rhythm of nature? Which species is the biggest predator?
Which species is the biggest predator?
