Faux Terrain, 2019

video

The space that separates a panoramic image from the standing position of its viewers is known as false ground – “faux terrain”.
The plot of the film follows a young adult, whose identity remains unclear, in special social spaces in Lucerne: the historical Bourbaki Panorama, civil defence shelters and the Kunstmuseum.
