GLOTTIS  takes place in a throat or in the darkest depths of a cave, in  ancestral times, in future time, or even outside of time. Three bigeyed  individuals somnambulists or blind visionaries dedicate themselves to  mysterious practices. They communicate with each other in a guttural and  rhythmic language that resembles a sound of beatboxing and seem to have  a talk with invisible forces.

This  trio, with the unsetting appearances of a fantastic prophecy, is an  oneiric experience through the twists and turns of unconscious. Inspired  by the expressionist and surrealist cinema from the beginning of 20st century, GLOTTIS advocates the occult.
