Genius Loci
Directed by Maya Merigeau
Produced by Kazak Productions, Folimage
A meditative, hand-drawn meditation on urban isolation and spiritual awakening, where a lonely figure encounters a transcendent presence guiding them through the chaos.
One night, Reine, a young loner, sees among the urban chaos a moving oneness that seems alive, like some sort of guide.
