韦斯利刚刚步入25岁的黄金年龄,然而对于一个生来就喜欢逃避现实的人来说,他的生命却已经到了混吃等死的最后阶段。不过在性格与偶然性铸就的人生当中,很多现状都是他自己一点一滴亲手促成的。韦斯利非常讨厌自己正在面对的境地,因为这样的生活让他充满了失败感:在公司中韦斯利的大块头老板几乎每小时都会辱骂他一番,已经把折磨他当成了人生的一大乐事;回到家中韦斯利那堪比性感尤物的女友,却又把他当成虚无的空气一样视而不见。每一个人都相信,像韦斯利这种闲散的懒鬼,最终的结局只会是一事无成,最最糟糕的是,就连韦斯利本人也这么认为,在他看来,生命的意义就是消磨时间,等待死亡——直到他遇到了一个名叫福克斯的女人,所有的一切都改变了。 韦斯利一直以为自己的亲生父亲早在他出生那会儿就已经去世了,然而事态全然不若他想得那般简单,福克斯为他带来了真相:他的父亲于昨天被人谋杀,而她奉命带韦斯利回去,完成他父亲未竟的事业。福克斯身上所散发出来的致命吸引力,让韦斯利毫不犹豫地跟随她加入了“互助会”,一个存在了几个世纪的秘密社团组织,并在那里接受训练,释放隐藏起来的能量,为父亲的死复仇——原来,杀戮的本性在他的血脉当中早已经如此根深蒂固了。就在福克斯教会韦斯利如何开发像闪电般快速的反应能力和成果显著的敏捷性时,他也发现这个组织一直秉承着一个古老且牢不可破的信念:贯彻执行由命运赋予的死亡命令,杀一人,救千人。 在一群技艺高超、才华横溢的导师的指点下——包括“互助会”中像谜一般高深莫测的领袖斯隆,韦斯利开始深深着迷于自身被开发出来的强大潜能,他也意识到这些危险的“同伴”背后隐藏着的是肉眼看不到的秘密,尤其是执行刺杀任务的时候,当初的高贵与纯粹也荡然无存。纠结在被新进开发的英雄主义和复仇的愤怒当中,韦斯利将会学会一件任何人都没办法教会他的事实:命运是掌握在自己手中的。

Exploring the concept of the Ecology of Emotions, this musical film portrays an inner journey through the secret garden of creativity put into frame by the nature of Iceland. Hidden Eden is a metaphor for our inner secret garden of creativity. This project bloomed during an art residency in Iceland, sparked by conversations around our shared philosophies on voice and emotional connection. The nature of Iceland inspired us to make the connection on how the landscape reflects the emotional states of creativity and how it helps manage the homeostasis of our inner emotional landscapes. This exchange between emotion and the landscape opens a space for healing. Creativity provides us with the tools to access a garden of our authentic being, nourishing and balancing us. Allowing ourselves to explore the spectrum of our emotions through the lens of our relationship with the Earth invites others to do the same. The creative process can affect our well being and is a key to human evolution.
