Wanderers - a short film by Erik Wernquist

  • 0:02 - 0:09
    Toate locatiile prezentate in acest scurt film sunt recreatii ale unor peisajei reale din sistemul nostru solar
  • 0:11 - 0:15
    Pe langa toate avantajele materiale, viata sedentara ne-a lasat
  • 0:15 - 0:18
    iritabili, neimpliniti.
  • 0:19 - 0:25
    Chiar si dupa 400 de generatii in sate si orase, nu am uitat!
  • 0:25 - 0:29
    Drumurile deschise continua sa ne cheme duios
  • 0:29 - 0:31
    ca un cantec aproape uitat uitat, auzit candva in copilarie.
  • 0:53 - 0:56
    Am privit tărîmurile foarte indepartate cu o atracție oarecum romantică.
  • 0:57 - 1:03
    O atractie care cred a fost meticulos cizelat de selectia naturala,
  • 1:03 - 1:05
    ca un element esential al supravieturii noastre.
  • 1:06 - 1:12
    Veri lungi, ierni blande, recolte bogate, vanat din belsug
  • 1:13 - 1:15
    Nici una din acestea nu dureaza pentru totdeauna.
  • 1:15 - 1:19
    Propria ta viata, sau cea a grupului tau, ori chiar a speciei tale se poate datora
  • 1:19 - 1:23
    catorva indivizi fara astampar, atrasi de o nazuinta pe care o pot cu greu
  • 1:23 - 1:29
    exprima sau intelege - de a descoperi noi tărîmuri si noi lumi.
  • 1:45 - 1:50
    Hermann Mellville vorbea în romanul sau Moby Dick in numele tuturor hoinarilor din toate epocile
  • 1:50 - 1:52
    și de pe toate meridianele:
  • 1:52 - 1:59
    Spunea: "Sunt tulburat de o eterna pasiune pentru lucrurile indepartate.
  • 1:59 - 2:02
    Imi place sa navighez pe mari interzise."
  • 2:58 - 3:02
    Poate e inca prea devreme, poate ca nu este chiar timpul potrivit inca,
  • 3:03 - 3:08
    dar toate acele alte lumi promit oportunitati nespuse - și ne cheamă.
  • 3:09 - 3:15
    Ele orbiteaza in jurul Soarelui, in liniste, asteptand.

(Just in case my website runs slow, here is a link to an imgur album version of the gallery: http://imgur.com/a/Ur5dP)

Wanderers is a vision of humanity's expansion into the Solar System, based on scientific ideas and concepts of what our future in space might look like, if it ever happens. The locations depicted in the film are digital recreations of actual places in the Solar System, built from real photos and map data where available.
Without any apparent story, other than what you may fill in by yourself, the idea of the film is primarily to show a glimpse of the fantastic and beautiful nature that surrounds us on our neighboring worlds - and above all, how it might appear to us if we were there.
