In a future in which more and more of us inhabit precarious as well as multiplicitous subject positions, the pursuit of meaning becomes harboured in the imminent present. Differing from linear utopian visions, this film explores the potential to exist outside regimes of epistemic violence.



It envisions a world stripped of structures of power: there are no gods, no stories or legends, no symbols or easily defined systems of representation. Without these structures, individuals are bound to make sense of themselves through orienting their actions in a self reflective pursuit of the sublime. They can be sure that something greater than themselves exists only through direct encounters with the transcendent, in weighty moments, and in their dreams.
