Electricity, blood and water tell the story of an ancient dream. The film is based on a fragment of Celtic mythology, a fragment or trace of a cultural mind-set now gone. Its images are projected like flickering starlight, scratchy and aged (an emissary from another era), drawing us along the path of an archetypal dream-vision. We move on a fractal journey from the stratosphere to the physical realm and into the internal space of the mind.
