With dystopian, apocalyptic aesthetics and atmospheres, Urth shows footage shot by Rivers at science center Biosphere 2, in Arizona. The images run with a voice-over by an anonymous scientist who recounts her last days in the big complex.
An intimate reflection on issues such as isolation, the construction of artificial environments, the vision of the future, the relationship between man and nature.
