Everyone exists within their own ecology. Our family, friends, acquaintances and neighbours all exist in an interconnected network. Today that web stretches endlessly through technology. Somewhere along the way, we forgot that we are not separate from the world around us, but deeply entangled with it. With each other, with nature, with everything we touch and everything that touches us back. This film drifts between my own personal ecology and a universal search for connection, collecting ways of entanglement in a tactile essayistic manner, tracing an attempt at unravelling our current tendency of finding closeness from a distance.
