Director's Statement

I feel a great fascination for what happens to us humans when we face nature, when we are confronted with a form of nature that seems overpowering or that is bigger than us. In addition to my Swiss roots, I also have roots in Sweden, where my last film, Rå, was shot. In Northern Sweden, the forest has a completely different dimension than it does here in Central Europe. I was interested in this feeling of standing in such a forest and feeling small. On the one hand, you feel safe, and on the other, you feel totally exposed because you don't know what or who is in the forest. I find the human attempt to categorise things, to understand things and to control things that we actually can't control fascinating. There are many narratives, myths and stories that have emerged from this urge.
