Peter Mettler’s and Emma Davie’s filmmaking scrutinises and reveals glimpses of the trappings of our perception now equipped with tools that seem to make us blind and deaf to the world around us. “The technologies intervene between our sensing bodies and the sensuous Earth in such a way that we begin interacting with the technology and forgetting that there is a wider, more-than-just-human world.” Abram’s thinking progresses, taking us with him in an attempt to explore and understand the living world through our sensations. How are we connected to the reality around us? By touching, breathing, smelling and feeling before this reality – our reality – eventually escapes us completely.
