I’ve never shot an abstract film before and it was in the beginning not that easy to go step away from the normal dialogs and customary blocking. But already on set, due to the right shooting time and beautiful spacious location I’ve got some magical and “from the other side” feeling, which we had applied to our work. Sound design in postproduction finalized the atmosphere of this short.

To shoot in 4×3 was also one of our creative decisions. It provided extra space for our protagonist in his special world and also added some cosmic feeling to the atmosphere of the film.
