This extraordinary collaboration between internationally celebrated artist-filmmakers Ben Rivers and Ben Russell is a radical proposition for the existence of utopia in an increasingly secular world. We follow an unnamed character (played by musician Robert AA Lowe, aka Lichens) on a journey through three seemingly disparate stages in his life. Shot on Super 16mm, this mesmerising ethnography reaches moments of true transcendence. GFF14
