In eleven static long takes, this is the story of a man who refuses to adapt to the digital revolution withdrawing into the ruins of a movie theater. Humanity has found a way todematerialize itself believing this is a way to escape from time and death. The nostalgic protagonist, however, does not accept the present. He decides to retain his own body, relegating himself to a life of solitude. Living in that place, the man struggles to remember a world that is about to end. Ruins, as well as the building site, are interior landscapes. Ruins are the sign of the slowness of time. The building site is a place of expectation where the presence of a lost past and the uncertainty of what can happen occurs. In the movie, the super 8 film and the story told are merged into a single identity, both trying to assert their presence and trying to prolong their own existence.
