When Andromeda and Milky Way Embrace
Jasu Appu
A lone airplane flies over a dark landscape. Amid fields of untouched snow, a rover scanning both the ground and the stars is troubled by the history it has been fed. Isolated inside the plane, people struggle to interpret the rover’s increasingly complex messages while attempting to uncover both the past and the future.
