Kairos is a short science fiction film by Belgian artist Alexis Destoop and American writer Aaron Schuster. Filmed mainly in the Australian outback, the movie deals with questions of time and landscape, colonization and desertification. The film follows the adventures of Larry Church, an agent of Collective Time Flow (CTF), a government organization created in the aftermath of the Great Temporal Catastrophe to take control of the passing of time and ensure that the population remains synchronized.

The evening at Vooruit highlights the unique soundtrack of the film, composed and performed by internationally renowned experimental musicians Oren Ambarchi and Stephen O’Malley. Their musical creation is an integral part of the Kairos universe, dramatizing the breakdown of time through a sonic texture which moves between repeating pulse and clashing dissonance.

Soon more info on the musicians.
