About the Project
“When the World Was Green” will seem an experimental narrative for the reason that everything in the movie talks. But this idea that everything seeks the opportunity to gain a propper hearing is a fundamental one, a basic feature in all the old stories. These various voices explore myth in their own way. Not myth as a pretty but irrelevant make-believe, but myth as a valid perception into reality. At the same time, the voices engage in tense and comical reflections about selfhood. The corresponding images are highly theatrical and celebrate the strangeness in nature’s beauty, the mysteries that make that beauty so compelling.
