Film
The idea of the film came from wanting to tell a story about desire between two adolescents and the relationship between a brother and sister. The fantastic genre interested me in order to talk of adolescence, impulses, unconscious desires. I wanted to film nature inhabited by a presence: a powerful entity that goes through characters and physical sensations. A brother, sister and a friend are wandering in the forest. The next day they discover a strange desert. The desert is haunted by a sandy shape that moves with the wind. As night falls, their desire for one another increases. Mutations seem to appear on their bodies. The force that surrounds them enlightens the confusion of their mutual desire.
