Serpentis

The film looks at the life of pipes in Ústí nad Labem – a network that moves through the city like a snake, variously twisting and hissing, connecting all people and animals nearby. Sometimes it dominates a vague terrain that eludes our conscious attention, while at other times it hides among the trees, invisible. It is an industrial snake with no beginning or end. In its infinite or circular nature, it recalls the everday circle of life.
