Synopsis

Original Title: Träume der Lausitz

A strange desert where giant chimneys rise, and flooded wells sink, all in a scale that doesn’t seem human. They’re space-size dimensions, in every sense of the word. A region that up until recently was wildly exploited by the mining industry, Lusatia is now an area that been liberated for nature and fantasy. Local wolves, varied animal and vegetal species that were part of the region before the industrial civilization, they all start to reclaim the land now. Nature retakes what society leaves behind. The remaining men –or rather, the ones who go there specially, like the wolves– are the ones who ask themselves questions, have active imaginations, and are able to reinvent themselves in that enchanted space. Floating constructions, rocks marked by human presence, wolf-calling, projects and ideas for a dream future, these are just some of the extraordinary activities developed by the new men of Lusatia.
