Horizon is an intimate story about the sea in the midst of climate and ecological crisis.
In the collective imagination the open sea and their isolated islands have been a place of longing, contemplation, escape and even salvation. But can these places still offer an escape in a time of global warming, pollution and biodiversity loss?
This film essay shot on the most isolated open sea island in the Adriatic – island Palagruza, observes the primordial seascape and layered environmental and climate changes that surround it.
“I needed to see the sea. I had to make sure it’s still out there. That it’s still wet, vast and powerful. I had to remind myself of its presence.
Perhaps, I was hoping to remember something that I forgot and lost along the way.
This is the story of my failed escape.
Because, the more I watched the sea, the more I saw us. Omnipresent and god-like acting us.”
