The Blind Passenger

A small fly appears as a blind passenger on a flight from Cape Town to Zurich. It repeatedly lands on my hand, on the pages of my book and in front of the onboard screen. From this accidental encounter emerges a short essay film about attention, projection, global mobility — and the question of who is actually observing whom.
