Styx is an 18-minute odyssey through the hidden spaces of an urban world. 

It is a poem of moving images testifying to the steps we take out of sync, as we wander towards the end. 

It is the testimony of ghosts, machines, and gutters. It is a ballad for psychopomps.

​

Accompanied by the music of Giuseppe Ielasi, Styx was made without a script and instead followed a strict, aesthetic continuum based on certain movements and qualities of natural light. Most of the footage was captured within a 1 kilometre radius in the 18th arrondissement of Paris, during the 55 days of the first confinement in France.

​

Contrasting abstract and figurative images, sequences of natural phenomenon and theatrical composition, Styx is a transformative visual narrative of ephemera and their passing from darkness to light.
