BEFORE THE DELUGE

by Jean-Jacques MARTINOD
2017-2020 / HI 8 & Super 16mm / color-b&w / sound / 1S / 38' 50

Within the ancient Precambrian rock of Northern Canada sits one of the largest reserves of uranium on the planet. A power that has yielded the largest destructive energy known to man, also manifest in the region's harsh natural glory. A gothic travelogue that summons dialogue with ghosts of the region; abandoned mining towns swallowed within the pandemonium of extraction commerce and neglect, while also the liminal unknown forces that inhabit these lands speak in shadow memories.
