About
On the Horizon serves as a poignant reminder of the impermanence and vulnerability of our coasts. It calls us to redefine our relationship with the ocean, embracing our role as stewards of the Earth. In this crucial moment, we have the power to forge a future that preserves the beauty and equilibrium of our planet.
On the Horizon is a poetic exploration of an artist’s reaction to climate change. Through stunning visuals and lyrical storytelling, the film encourages audiences to grapple with rising sea levels by going toward the problem, not away from it, finding beauty and meaning in the process.
The tubes, filled with seawater, symbolize the expected sea level rise over the coming decades, emphasizing the urgency of responding to the rapid environmental changes. In this cinematic journey, we delve into Ana Teresa Fernandez’s project, capturing the explorations of artists, dancers, musicians, and communities.
Together, we embark on an experience that challenges perceptions, invites reflection, and inspires collective action.
The way our collective story unfolds depends largely on our actions.
