CGiii Comment

After the sudden appearance of never-before-seen plants, trees, and flowers, a series of mysterious events takes place in the city, whose or origin Camelia and Nala attempt to trace. The irruption of the unexpected into everyday life, and the ensuing eruption of disorientation, give shape to a reflection that intertwines ecological and socio-political questions, redefining the relationship between the familiar and the natural. These vegetal presences, emerging like foreign bodies within the urban space, embody an uncanny force capable of unsettling the customary order of things, just as war disarticulates the status quo, or unexpected weather events disrupt the natural balances we had taken for granted. Moving between political transformation, ecological unease, and magical imagination, the film turns artistic freedom into a space where reality can be deformed and the imaginary allowed to bloom.
