A day in the game ‘Horizon 5’ is equal to an hour in real life.
The poem of Dylan Thomas ‘Do not go gentle into that good night’ in Chinese as narrative runs through the whole film. I take time-lapse photography by collecting the game landscape to reveal people’s pursuit of beautiful things, which also triggered my exploration of the virtual world.
The advent of drones allows us to appreciate the infinite scenery of nature better, but due to various limitations of reality and rules, it is difficult for us to feel the pleasant scenery we yearn for. In the movie, I acted as a virtual tourist from the real world and recorded the evolution from pure nature and semi-civilization to advanced civilization with the camera.
