The Barking of the Stars

Two friends meet in Larraitz to climb a recently established route by Mikel Saez de Urabain on Mount Txindoki. Mikel himself trusts that the peace of the place will help him find the name for the newly created route. Meanwhile, Iker Uranga seeks to free himself from his chronic pain and anxiety. 

The short film shows the process of falling and getting back up. The transition from insomnia, a mind ruminating over worries and pain... towards the process of rising, in nature, and reaching a different state, thanks to climbing and friendship. In that process, texts/reflections are shown in the form of a poetic narration.
