Synopsis
A stranger across the Mediterranean Sea, from south to north to the frozen Alpes. Here we are, spectators of the trial brought against him by Europe and the media. “Who are you, stranger?”. ‘Geology of Separation’ travels through the dislocated territories of migration, those that detach desert from mountains, sky from earth, voices from bodies. For in the beginning, there was the Pangea, then the earth image blew up.
