Feature: Burial (Emilija karnulyt, Lithuania & Norway, 2022, 60 min, in English & Lithuanian with English subtitles)
A python slithers and curls over the abandoned control room of Chernobyls Big Sister the decommissioned Ignalina Nuclear Power Plant in Lithuania interpreting the plants radioactive core as an unleashed monster, one that will slither through time for millions of years. From Etruscan ruins and sunken cities to the most modern of underground repositories, artist and director Emilija karnulyt examines different ways in which humanity has attempted to bury the immortal. Burial is a gentle meditation on nuclear waste that examines burial traditions, and material and ritual heredity as it traces fresh and old scars that have been left on our geographical and cultural landscapes.
