Rebecca E Marshall draws from footage she has filmed across twenty years around her home in East Sussex and on her travels, in an intimate address to her child in the future.

She builds connections between Agafya Lykova, an elderly woman surviving alone in the Siberian forest who scares bears away by banging space-rocket debris, a crew simulating life isolated on Mars on a Hawaiian volcano, and her young child discovering the world minute by minute.

This endlessly surprising journey offers up images that shake ideas of past, present and future. It generates a deeply tender vision of timeless human connections that weave through an increasingly divided world.

In a time when extreme and polarising viewpoints are constantly pushed into our attention, this film offers a space to notice the quiet details we can all share.

Xylouris White (drummer Jim White [Dirty Three], lutist Giorgos Xylouris, Guy Picciotto [Fugazi]) provide a haunting original score. Apollonia Xylouris contributes additional vocals
