Synopsis

Over centuries of human settlement, five species and populations of birds and mammals have become extinct on the Faroe Islands, such as the great auk. What remains of these creatures today?
Shot on films corroded by the salt and sea of the archipelago, this experimental short film sensitively explores our connections with other species, between traditional hunting and folklore, but also absence, solitude and the traces we leave behind.

(FR) Au fil de siècles d’occupations humaines, cinq espèces et populations d’oiseaux et de mammifères ont disparu des îles Féroé, comme le grand pingouin. Que reste t’il de ces créatures aujourd’hui ?
Tourné sur pellicules corrodées par le sel et la mer de l’archipel, ce court-métrage expérimental évoque avec sensibilité les liens aux autres espèces, entre chasse traditionnelle et folklore, mais aussi l’absence, la solitude et les traces laissées derrière soi.
