5 Walks. Hercynia Silva
Short Film, 2008, 16 min.
In five short chapters - Army of Ghosts, Sacred Tree, King of the Forest, Enchantment, Lost - the cultural significance of one of the last remaining sections of primeval forests in Northern Europe is investigated. Black-and-white images, relevant quotations and historical photographs visualise the myths, fauna and manifestations of this Hercynia Silva, as Julius Caesar labelled the impenetrable primeval forest - from the winding paths from ancient times to the higways of today.
