The Film
The film takes as its departure a moment in Zabriskie Point (Michelangelo Antonioni, 1970), but it is set in present-day Sweden. In the video the camera pans through a room, where a large crowd of young people are assembled but not, yet, to interact or perhaps even talk to one another. Instead they seem to be caught in a moment, seemingly waiting for something.
