The camera's eye returns obsessively to the same places, a vertical perspective that imposes control, the possession of archaeological sites, and stones lying for thousands of years in the desert. The places it observes, however, are not deserted: we see as if glimpsed from afar, the peasants working the land, themselves transformed into the landscape. Something disturbs the stillness of the place: explosions on land and in the sea prepare the ground for new cities with new names, and new forests. This landscape is transformed into a scenography of appropriation.
