Night Sky 01:11
It's late evening. There is a forest. The moon reflects above it. The treetops are swaying in the wind. There is a man standing right in front of the entrance. We see him from behind as he enters and immediately disappears in a thicket of trees. We can hear the wind, we can feel it’s so cold.
2.
Magical Land 03:25
There are rivers with crystal clear water, there are plants of different types and sizes. The night is no more. The air is clear. Life is abundant here. The man is walking, his expression that of great admiration. He disappears from the horizon.
3.
Reflection 01:11
Rain is falling. The man is still walking. Now his step is slower. His face is still. The view is blurry from all the rain. The Man passess a bird. We hear him sing a nimble song. Soon another of his kind joins him. Man treads lightly now, as if not to disturb the spectacle. As soon as he passess the edge, a strong wind blows.
4.
Vast Fields 04:53
The man is in another land now. An open field before him. We see hills, rocky formations. In uncertain fashion, he goes further. The space in view is vast. We see the sky, it’s perfectly blue. We see horses running in the distance. An eagle passes above the man. Now, the golden sun is about to set. The horizon is painted in a hue of yellow mixed with red. The man stopped himself on a rock to appreciate the view.
5.
Wolves 01:10
The sun is gone. Darkness all around. We see a silhouette of the man. He seats now, looking around in fear. We hear a howl in the distance.
6.
The wind is blowing. The sky is dark. The man is rushing. The sea in the distance is heaving with massive waves. The man passess next to a line of trees, next to a sea. The seashore is full of rocky formations. The waves are crashing onto them. The waves take different forms, one of them seems to be that of a female. As we see more clearly, a woman goes out of the sea. The man did not notice her appearance. She faced his direction and followed him.
7.
As the man walks, a female hand in a hue of blue is appearing in the sky behind him.
8.
From just a hand, through the head and to the rest, a woman started materializing behind the traveler. Her body started to take shape. Her hair is dark, her eyes green. Soon she appears in full form, all naked. She tapped him on the shoulder. The man turned around. He was standing straight, looking at her. Facing each other, they embraced. As soon as their bodies touched a strong wind started blowing.The falling leaves adorned them. Together they stood, beneath the swaying trees.
9.
The Heart 00:44
We are inside a dark place. No person in sight. We can see that the walls are made of wood. There is a strong but very pleasant scent of wood. Something blue is shimmering in the forefront.
10.
The Forest 02:14
Heavy rain is pouring. We see the forest. We are above it and we are moving slowly. We see a little point, a light. It starts shimmering and we see and hear it emanating stronger and stronger. It grows, covering the trees, the plants and all the living things. The wind is still blowing. The forest is alive.
11.
We see the trees to the left and to the right, as we move through the forest. We’re entering a mist. It starts to swallow everything around. The trees, the plants, they all are covered with white, damp mist. It’s cold. We see that the night is coming. We’re moving forward. A piercing scream blends with the sound of the forest - the wind, the cracking of trees. The vision gets darker. We’re entering deeper, into the pitch black.
