Fiction Video / Individual

Supervisor:

“Drawing from a genre that may be coined speculative documentary the course puts emphasis on developing a sense of reality that resides within and beyond the factual and narrative of how inhabitable space can be seen, described, analyzed and envisioned. Based on the movie The Wild Blue Yonder by Werner Herzog (2005), in 10 chapters we will browse through the history of development of mankind and at the same time project a trajectory of future habitations deep into time, far from now. ” (from Course Brief)

This video is the replacement ending chapter of the fiction movie The Wild Blue Yonder , telling the story of astronauts getting back to earth after 800 years.
