AFTERWORDS
 
A trilogy of films dedicated the most extreme environments on the planet, I was interested in living in these lands trying to capture those lives styles which are dissapearing, I was interested in the collective imaginary of these places and their mythic idea of the end of the world. I was interested in landscapes, places that carried in a certain way a feeling of the “End”, through abandonness, remoteness, harshness of the land and of course living conditions, places that could represent in a way a post apocalyptic future scenario and at the same time a certain archaic civilisation feeling.

I was interested in the people living in this peripheries of civilization and how they survive their everyday life, why they were here and how they were managing to survive. I was interested in living among them, following their rhythms and trying to understand their ways, their reasons.

I firmly believe that in those places I found Human spirit in it’s most purest and sincere stage, away from a certain civilisation drive. I hope these people and their lives will spur a light onto those occidental and civilized viewers.

The film trilogy is dedicated entirely to the people who shared some of their treasure moments with me. I hope these films will testimony their existence.
