In a dark, ambiguous environment, minuscule particles drift slowly before the lens. The image reveals spruce trees and tall pines, while Innu voices tell us the story of this flooded forest. Muffled percussive sounds become louder, suggesting an hydroelectric dam. The submerged trees transform into firebrands as whispers bring back the stories of this forest.
