This film explores the relationship between progress, failure and destruction in a humorous approach, but it is simultaneously permeated with a sense of angst and a crushed idealism. It is rooted in the context of the ever growing sprawl of technology, a digital, incorporeal reality, and nature altered, blended into artificiality or erased. Building demolition is a recurring element which is metaphorical in various ways: architectures can be seen as monuments that symbolise possessions, power and authority, a hallmark of progress. Simultaneously, they can be seen as carriers of both personal and collective memories, utopian ideals and history. The act of professionally destroying what has been professionally and labour-intensively constructed is absurd, self-ironic, unavoidably funny, but also sad. The debris from the demolished buildings, this leftover, unwanted, abandoned and desolate wastage is the embodiment of despair and nihilism in contemporary life.
