In a large, humming greenhouse, the camera is trained on an intricate sarracenia, or pitcher plant. The morning light shines through the glass and casts fragmented rays onto the dew-drenched vibrant greenery. The wide shot offers an image of a labyrinthine jungle of exotic and carnivorous plants within rusticated, wrought-iron frames. As the camera zooms in, focus shifts from the brooding foliage to the specific sultry elegance of the sarracenia’s reddish-purple vessel.
Suddenly, the silence of the greenhouse is shattered by a high-pitched and distant ‘Hallo’. The sound echoes, bouncing off the glass walls. The camera jerks left and dives into deep focus, navigating through the rows of plants, creating a dizzying feeling of endlessness, or ‘nonstops’.
You can sense the depth of the scene as the perspective shifts, showing that whoever made the call is hidden beyond thick vegetation. The balance of the scene teeters between the familiar and the wildly unknown, teeming with unseen life.
