A science fiction documentary shot entirely in the Senegalese capital of Dakar, West Africa. The African Modernist cityscape becomes a backdrop to a story emerging from the astronomical constellation of Orion, played out by famous local soap actors Nadeye Thiaba Diop and Ousseynou Bissichi as well as the Dakar based artist Hassan Ndiaye .
“By jamming multiple time streams and technical formats he stages elliptical, psychological landscapes in which fantasy and documentary become almost interchangeable.” – Stuart Comer, Curator, Tate Modern.
