A map is a device to get lost.
Following the maps in film history, trailing along the thoughts of map theorists, acoustically guided by pings and howls this is a meditation on how maps in film make us dis- and re-orient ourselves and our bodies in the world.
A video essay to disappear and be found again.

Featuring the voice and thoughts of Daniel Eschkoetter.
Wih a sound design made entirely out of mapping devices like foghorns, radar signals, and MRI noise.
