'Earth is out of bounds for us now; it remains a planet accessible
only through media', the viewer is told at the beginning of Otolith,
an essay-film that imagines a future in which humankind is confined
to outerspace.
Through a variety of archival footage – encompassing recent digital
news footage and 35mm film shot in the 1940s – the narrative weaves
together public histories and private memories. Imagining a future
in order to look back on the past, Otolith aims at reorientating our
perceptions of the world.
