Dandelion's Odyssey
(Planètes)

Momoko Seto, visual artist and scientific documentarian at the CNRS, brings us Dandelion’s Odyssey, her first feature film, in which she continues her exploration of the living world. After several short films portraying fictitious planets, this story turns four dandelion seeds into its protagonists. Uprooted from their native soil after an explosion, they are carried across different environments at the mercy of the elements. Will they find a land where they can take root? Filled with encounters that are both joyful and threatening, this journey immerses us in questions of displacement and environmental transformation. A wordless film, with innovative visual techniques and sound design, it offers a unique cinematic experience. Avana Ranaivoson
