I Call Them Glowsuckers

Kallinen Minna-Kaisa

I Call Them Glowsuckers lets the viewer experience the extraordinary encounter of a swimmer and an unknown sea creature. At first the swimmer is horrified, but soon also enchanted by her discovery. In a short period of time the creatures take over her daily life, as her endless curiosity brings her ever deeper into their world. I Call Them Glowsuckers is a meditation on the human-nature relationship, prejudices and fears as well as the urge to understand something foreign.
