The Day the Wild Cried is a journey through three landscapes: arid and cold, electric and bright, and submerged underwater. An urban and metallic desert is the source of sound and light. Mini-architectures refer to the city and capitalism. Electrical circuits connect through the bodies, creating sound. A musician and a dancer learn to adapt and survive through their connection. The two of them, as though on an island, tell childhood memories, anecdotes from a time when nature reigned. Nostalgia and memories of ancestors beckon us to imagine a habitable future.
