Catalogue > At random

Set in the millenary Chinese city of Suzhou —now a super modern city— a fragile reconstruction of optical reality fails to fully materialise. Two mysterious characters help the “package” (POV) to follow a linear trajectory of space time, nevertheless there will be several instances to escape the linear construct. Sounds of machine guns, sonic monsters and war explosions do not interrupt the peaceful flow of an evening walk.
