SILENT PINES approaches  what remains after a major fire. The camera follows a person walking through the burnt and silent forest. It is an attempt to connect with and to become aware of an incident of destruction.

Filmed in one take in July 2019 near Sertã, Portugal, the video was shot a few days after a forest fire. Within four days, approximately 8,500 hectares were burnt in a fire stretching 25 kilometres across the landscape.
