Long still frames, text, and sound are woven together to unfold the narrative of an anonymous group that fills its time by plotting distances. Innocent measurements give way to political ones, examining how image and sound communicate history.
A time traveller recounts his vision of a post-revolution Egypt in the year 2026, an image of the future stuck in a hopeless repetition of the present. Based on a text from the Egyptian novel The Revolution of 2053 and a scene from Chris Marker’s La Jetée.
