Eastern Anthems

An unfinished film is passed along from one friend to another. The dialogue between them is a journey crossed by the swarming of the American Great Eastern Brood X of periodical cicadas that prophetically emerge every 17 years, invoking a reflection of a post-pandemic present and our shared futures. A film composed of a chorus of voices (both human and non-human), the warnings of history, the power of nature, and rebirth.
