FilmPLANE is a mirage spreading out into infinity, showing the trembling contours of the world, a poem on how the ability to depict and see transforms the landscape. Trees protrude along the edges without any boundary between ground and air, and silhouettes on the horizon wander along with the undulating feeling that one cannot catch one’s breath. (Ji.hlava International Documentary Film Festival)
