“Roots” is an introspective tale that delves into the disconnection between humanity and nature. Aran, an enigmatic man marked by the scars of his past, leaves the chaotic city behind in search of a deeper connection with the natural world. Through rural landscapes, forests, and hidden villages, he faces the hostility of modern society and finds solace in the most essential elements of life.

Along his journey, a simple coin becomes a symbol of connection between two worlds: one ravaged by progress and another clinging to its ancestral roots. The story, filled with symbolism and eloquent silences, invites reflection on identity, belonging, and the lost balance between humanity and its environment.

A visual and emotional journey into the depths of what it means to be human.
