A speculative narrative film informed by poetry and theories of quantum entanglement across diasporic distance. An intimate exploration of grief and resistance in shifting landscapes of loss, from the streets to the bed.

Journalist and underground music champion Alan Cummings talks to Keiji Haino about his career and his performance the previous evening.
A multi-speaker, electronic, spacious and spatial performance from Florian Hecker.
Minimal details and otherworldly glistening drones, rich with sustained metallic timbres that breathe with the scrapped pulse of bowed metal.
A chorister attempting to sing Vivaldi, with live accompaniment, while trampolining for 20 minutes.
