The Speed of Light is a project by Argentine director Marco Canale, created in collaboration with the inhabitants of the Sierre and Val d’Anniviers region. The artist carried out several long-term residencies in order to discover the particularities of this region and to spend time with participants from different generations. Together they talked about their origins and local traditions, their ties to the land and to animals, their memories and their daily lives. Based on these encounters, Canale wrote a story halfway between documentary and fiction, whose characters are played by the participants. Against the backdrop of the impressive landscapes of the Val d’Anniviers, The Speed of Light evokes the living conditions of past and contemporary realities, while opening up reflection on the possible futures of the region.
