Two years have elapsed since the first lock-in that we will remember as a collective, which presupposes that humanity has learned to re/look and re/think the world it inhabits, or at least that is what we thought when we could not leave our homes. A look of hope and change mixed with a feeling that the world would end.
Today, after so much, we meet again, with more questions and with a new look to re/think our daily landscapes, what surrounds us? with what eyes are we seeing the world after the quarantine? Today we only have questions, uncertainties for the future: do you know what sounds surround you? what is your daily flora? The spaces we inhabit and the things we relate to.
The idea of this project was born from a filmed correspondence between friends, which allowed us, from a new sensibility, to tell each other our daily experiences and what we have felt during our quarantine.
This experience of creation from the intimacy, without pretensions or unnecessary artifices, but from the feeling and the desire to share, helped to discover the poetic potential of the environments that surround us.
The correspondences are based on the exchange of ideas that allow us to observe the world of the other. They allow us to discover the geographical universe that we inhabit and that unites us when we are motivated to share these sensations.
The filmed correspondences is a format that allows filmmakers, artists to tell in a very artisanal way their way of looking at the world.
