A poetic musing on the ephemeral quality of memory and the desire for finding our own place inside of systems that displace us. This short film is part of a larger research around culture in “New Towns”. These are places that are created by governments for different socioeconomic reasons. However, culture is an often overlooked aspect of the creation of new towns around the world.
