TERRA MATER (2024) (Mother Land) Sundance 2024


Kantarama Gahigiri​'s  experimental political art film is a visually stunning film set in a garbage dump. 

A plea to stop waste and the destruction of the environment for the rare metals needed in today's technology the film will wow you with the images it throws up. I wish had seen this on a big screen where I could have fallen into it.

On the other hand I'm not certain it adds up to much. The whispered declarations come in too late to truly mean something. Yes, its visuals will get it into museums and festival collections of experimental films but I don't know if the film will have any effect beyond the oh wow visuals.
