Gabriel Sanson, Clyde Gates - Himinn Opinn

A fallen community struggles to survive on a remote island. A young woman seems to bear a strange disease that makes the vegetation and the animals perish. A lonely shepherd volunteers to escort her in the deserted lowlands to prevent her from contaminating the rest of the village.
Directors’ Statement
Himinn Opinn was crafted with pieces of glaciers and volcanoes, with the everlasting light of an abyssal fish. May it be seen by a blind mother and heard by her deaf child.
