Oriental Elegy

1996

A surreal journey of a displaced spirit as he wanders in the interminable darkness through the temporal landscape of a quaint and isolated feudal-era fishing village. Guided by a series of faintly illuminated rooms, the wandering spirit comes upon ancient souls who take on physical forms as they recount their personal stories of daily existence, loss, and tragedy in the peasant community. Intrigued by his initial visit to a curiously distracted elderly woman, the spirit returns to her home in order to ask a fundamental question - "What is happiness?" - an existential query that is innocently answered with innate humility and accepted unknowingness.

A stunt thriller like a mixture of James Bond and Ethan Hawke: Deep snow skiing in the Himalayas, extreme skiing in Alaska, slopestyle in Aspen and paragliding in the Engadine. The best skiers in the world set new standards for human possibilities.
