Sinopsis / Synopsis:

A man, a woman and their young daughter live together in an apartment in the Basque Country. Domestic chores and everyday gestures are superimposed onto deep green landscapes. The filmmakers and their stand-ins reinterpret fragments of a diary. Quiet observation punctuated by moments of fantasy form a collage of daily routines, illuminating the inexhaustible labors and improvisations necessary to sustain a family, a home and the making of a film.

Biografía / Biography:

Laida Lertxundi is an artist and filmmaker who lives and works between the USA and the Basque Country. Combining conceptual rigor with sensual pleasure in a process she calls Landscape Plus, her films establish parallels between landscape and the body as centers of pleasure and experience.
