World premiere: Karlovy Vary IFF 2024 / Imagina

A man throws a wooden slat up into the sky. It vanishes on the horizon as the camera slowly rotates on its own axis. The slat circles the earth and strikes him in the back of the head. What appears to be an act of deliberate self-destruction is in fact the metaphorical dissolution of the ego and the beginning of a metaphysical journey. In collaboration with renowned artists and performers, Daniel Zimmermann stages across 10 tableaux a series of mind-expanding practices for the big screen.
