Synopsis

LONG LIFE (1) was shot near the Ranger Uranium Mine. It imagines a memory of a time from the future. The South Alligator River is in flood. Waterbirds swoop and glide across silver surfaces in and out of sync with unmoored radio signals from Sputnik 1, the long-lost satellite. Birds and signals, traces adrift in the ether of flooded, radioactive wetlands.
