SYNOPSIS
The film explores the phenomenon of different forms of craters. It condenses into a narrative form around the Ramon Crater in the Negev Desert in Israel and its counterpart of the same name on the moon.
In an aesthetic of digital geoinformation systems, found footage and animated photo collages, the digital shifting, zooming in and out becomes a performance with inherent changes of perspective.
