Critical zone

As she returns to her childhood woods to meditate, Ellie, overcome by profound turmoil, discovers a devastated landscape. The collapsed trees and earth that made up her playground gradually echo the trajectory of her body. Grief and anger mingle, and this critical zone, a thin layer of earth on which the miracle of life takes place and which is now threatened with precariousness, seems to become one with the architecture of her being. As the extent of her forest's destruction is revealed, Ellie discovers the story its skeleton carries and what it has to say about her condition as a woman.
