About the work

Year: 2018

Duration: 10m 56s

Director: Paul Rosero Contreras

Country: Ecuador

Producer: Anna Shvets / Paul Rosero Contreras

Synopsis:

Watching Purple Haze one might travel to a dystopian future. One in which ocean becomes acid because of Co2 pollution and some sessile species such as corals are not able to survive. However, in this dark scenario, the video focuses on micro-biological resilience. All marine species spotted in the proximity of fumaroles in Roca Redonda active volcano in the Galápagos Ar- chipelago are presenting a survival mechanism that allows them to inhabit this unpleasant environment. In this sense, Purple Haze relates to hope and the relationship between micro and macro-cosmos by means of an investigation on symbiosis and interspecific cooperation.
