Amie and Victor wander off into the woods. There, people and nature move together and find each other in the here and now. In the vein of her previous work, Canadian filmmaker Jasmine Ellis combines film, dance, body language, text and music to create a new world. Ellis works in Munich and studied at The School of Toronto Dance Theatre, Etobicoke School of the Arts and Codarts Rotterdam.
