Beyond the North Winds: A Post Nuclear Reverie

Summary

The transformation of the landscape over time, the impact of technology on nature, the contrast between modern industry and the mystery inherent in the breathtaking Scottish landscape. All these topics come together in this hybrid documentary, which follows in the footsteps of Walter Glass, a man who mysteriously disappeared while investigating a nuclear reactor. Working with a strictly specified timeframe, British-Columbian director Natalie Cubides-Brady employs geometrically precise shots of the power plant's ruins to seek the answer to a question: How deep are the environmental scars that humans have left their descendents?
