THE BLIND - In a village where only blind people live, they hear a distant rumbling and hissing sound at night. For generations, it is said that a monster is lurking around them and that as soon as they leave the village, they are eaten. The villagers live comfortably without ever leaving their village until one day a young man decides to leave the village.

PEER GYNT - Loosely inspired on Henrik Ibsens famous theatre persona of Peer Gynt, this film tells the story of a young man living in a small village in the Congolese tropical rainforest.
Absorbed by his own world of imagination, he finds himself trapped in a desolate environment where nobody apart from his mother believes in his dreams and the miracles he always talks about.
When one day his mother dies and Peer Gynt decides to leave, his world of imagination seems to descend upon the village.
Peer Gynt is a poetical journey through a double layered world of reality and imagination.
