Beyond the North Winds: A Post Nuclear Reverie

Future Frames: Generation NEXT of European Cinema 2019 / Beyond the North Winds: A Post Nuclear Reverie / United Kingdom 2019

The transformation of the landscape over time, the impact of technology on nature, and the contrast between modern industry and the myths that have, since time immemorial, been associated with unspoiled nature. All these topics come together in this hybrid documentary about the search for a man who mysteriously disappeared while investigating a Scottish nuclear reactor.

Synopsis

The transformation of the landscape over time, the impact of technology on nature, the contrast between modern industry and the mystery inherent in the breathtaking Scottish landscape. All these topics come together in this hybrid documentary, which follows in the footsteps of Walter Glass, a man who mysteriously disappeared while investigating a nuclear reactor. Working with a strictly specified timeframe, British-Columbian director Natalie Cubides-Brady employs geometrically precise shots of the power plant’s ruins to seek the answer to a question: How deep are the environmental scars that humans have left their descendents?
