In a timeless and dark environment, barely perceptible particles move in slow motion in front of the lens. We notice the shape of the silhouettes becoming trees; conifers, black spruce, tall pines lying under the waters of a hydroelectric reservoir on an unceded Innu territory turn into flames. This enigmatic exploration, between water and fire, testifies the climate emergency.
