The heroine of the story, Glythe, suddenly finds herself besieged by brutalist futuristic constructions that gradually replace her natural habitat. Surreal elements of digital art evoking virtual reality and memories of a dream garden help her find peace in her new inhospitable environment. The buildings gradually transform and decompose, recalling familiar processes from the organic world… Footage from the Barbican residential brutalist complex in London is combined with moving 3D animations of buildings in the same architectural style.
