Drift is the story of a man looking for salvation. Loosing his lover, the man becomes silent and drifts off on a mythical journey through a real but barren landscape. He fights his grief through beautiful and painful physical rituals, developing a primitive state of being that refers to universal ancient stories. As the past reveals itself, the man slowly disappears. Drift is shot in a documentary-like, contemporary reality. Yet the film offers a strong contemplative experience, exploring poetic expressions of the human body through intuitive images.
