“We sing so the valley remembers we were here.”
Synopsis
In a canyon where phone signal dies at the entrance, three generations of women sing harvest songs no radio has ever carried. A film about voice, distance and the acoustics of belonging.
Behind the lens
Recorded in ambisonic sound — the canyon became the mixing room. No score; only voices and wind.
