A short science documentary about the search for the lost island of Testerep, connecting geography with artificial landscapes and virtual realities.

synopsis

A team of scientists explores the vanished island of Testerep, off the Belgian coast. Traditional excavations are combined with advanced technologies, such as computer simulations and sound wave analyses, to trace the coastal evolution over 5,000 years. As researchers decode these mysteries, they contemplate the symbiotic relationship between humans, technology, and our temporal landscape. This offers glimpses into future virtual worlds, and bridges the gaps between the past, present, and the ever-evolving role of technology in shaping our understanding of the world.
