Plot summary

"A visual, speechless sound installation, this film takes place on the oil sands in Fort McMurray, Canada, during the 2016 forest fire. A desolate landscape, man-made lakes, dense clouds of smoke rumbling across the sky. A visual journey across mankind's exploitation of nature, all in the hunt for oil." (the production company's synopsis)
