Through the reproductive relation, such desire is transformed into a filmic act and experience. Fragments of imagery landscape have been cut into traces of memory.

A parade of single frames move ahead and the images flee. It's about a journey and a distance. A distance from one point to another. Trains departing, highways, navigating by water and air. A distance of filming. A distance from one image to another film roll, from one frame to another perforation. A distance from the real to the memory. It's about a distance and human relations.
