AMOOSED: a moose odyssey
(AMOOSED: losí odysea)
Moose have played a vital and, to this day, somewhat mysterious role in our world since time immemorial. Their massive figures reflect considerable strength, a calm beauty, and the forgotten bond between humanity and the wild.
A totem animal. A guide between worlds. A being that appears only to those who need it most at that moment. This is how the documentary’s director and ethnologist describes the moose, an encounter with which becomes a key moment in her life. The search for the secrets that have long surrounded moose leads her into Czech forests and remote corners of Russia and Canada. The stories she gathers during her odyssey gradually assemble an image of a being that has not yet revealed to humans all that it hides. A film about the encounter between man and moose subtly transforms into a universal reflection on how people are gradually losing their connection to nature.
