Origin

Dir. Karlos Gil

Synopsis

Origin evokes a futuristic way of life in a mysterious landscape deep underground. The underworld of railway chambers excavated over time, houses remains of lost civilizations and evolved species to create a meditation on time, memory, ruins and extinction.

Filmed in Madrid underground, this film investigates the erosion of memory and the corruption of information, revealing how ideas can wear out due to the effects of time and technology.

The edition infects matter with memory with the help of the fusion of the future and the past of science fiction.

The work has been exhibited in renowned museums such as 1646 Experimental Art Space in The Hague, Netherlands, and CA2M in Madrid, Spain.
