Torpor

Belgium

As a polar bear guard, Olivia is responsible for the protec7on and guidance of a group of scien7sts during the dark months of the Arc7c polarnight. From the base of their ship, the scien7sts study an unprecedented phenomenon nearby: a village of about 50 people in hiberna7on. Fascinated by this radical passivity during their collec7ve slumber, Olivia increasingly ques7ons her own vigilance.
