The narrative video Counter-Narratives of Water by Disnovation.org and Clémence Seurat travels back through deep geological time, weaving together anecdotes and collective stories.
Commissioned by a town councillor and a group of speleologists in partnership with the Haut-Jura Regional Natural Park (PNR), the video explores the elusive world of water in karst landscapes, revealing how it moves, is understood and is represented through stories and observation.
