SOGOBI
I wanted to go back and make a film purely about landscape and the environment. I had two ideas: Id either make all of the shots pure nature with no human traces, or Id add some shots that would slowly refer to human encroachment. Of course, that is what I did in the end. 9 or 10 shots are like that. However, the first shots are of pure wilderness, almost Biblical and then around the tenth shot a fire helicopter enters from the top of the frame, invading the space both in picture and sound, a helicopter coming from top, kind of like God, dipping down.
