The margins and horizons of a landscape that perhaps never existed. A story told using the invented language of the Na’vi (created for the film Avatar), in which rhythm and tone create the narration. A semantic vision of the absence of what is present – birthplace, home, solid ground – questions the imagination about the unclear boundary between what is dream, what is possible and what is real.
“I guess that the memory of a look is always indefinite and compromised by details.” G. Giaretta
