Francisco BERMEJO
Somewhere at the end of the world, where ocean and rocks play their endless games of hide and seek, lives a man. In his mysterious solitude he is not alone. One day remains of a white whale are washed by a storm on a beach. In this stranded portrait inspired by H. Melville's masterpiece Moby Dick the director questions our inner reality and our own gaze on it.
