In this visually breathtaking experimental documentary, three donkeys make their way among the giant structures of an unmanned astronomical observatory in the Atacama Desert in Chile. Set against a luminous night sky, the film hints at the animals’ perception of the universe as the giant telescopes move across the sky, capturing the galaxies. Framed by the dazzling incandescence of the evening desert landscape, perfectly a strangeness is a hauntingly hypnotic slice of real-world cinema.
