This video is a rough cut of the begging of a feature documentary I am working on. Green Dream is a visionary documentary art project. It incorporates a film, a community mapping project, and explores organic and intuitive process of creation and communication. Documentary Film Synopsis With a bittersweet playfulness, Maia Iotzova brings us along on an intimate and contemplative journey, in search of the root of our conflicting relationship with nature. Starting with memories of unruly tall grass in her native Bulgaria, and moving through the obsessively manicured short grass in Canada, her film immerses us in a visual exploration of the attitudes and everyday interactions people have with GREEN; the space, the colour and the concept. What emerges from the images she weaves together is that on one hand we crave and are enchanted by the natural environment but, on the other, we actively control and destroy it. Where is the root of our conflict with nature? How can we find balance and preserve what is so precious to us? As we follow Maia on her journey, we see her find the answers to these questions in an unexpected place that lies beyond green.
