Chasing Whales
Synopsis
A lyrical voyage to the Hebrides and Faroe Islands. The hazy images shimmer in ever changing colours, their emphatic materiality giving expression to the magic of the locations. The voiceover weaves subjective impressions and historical facts into a dense narrative of life with – and about – the whales in these regions. The film reflects on subsistence farming, biodiversity, and endangered marine mammals.
