In the nature reserve De Peel, a lone woman pictures a forest ablaze, while in reality, she's watching the sunset. Lit only by sunlight and fire, she performs a ritual act.
In the fire-scarred landscape of the Limburg Peel, a woman appears like a shadow between sun and ash. In her mind's eye, a forest burns. Branches turn black, the air turns to smoke, the earth breathes heat. But what she's actually looking at is the sunset: a sky that slowly ignites, taking on the appearance of fire. The film moves like a dream through a terrain of peat, light and afterburn. A mystical meditation on inner emptiness, ecological threat and the fragile line between seeing, remembering and hallucinating.
