Shot in 8mm, It’s all about geography is a haptic and poetic exploration of a lover's separation a few weeks before the pandemic broke out, making geography and distances feel like they did in the times of our ancestors: unpredictable, abrupt and extensive. The film proposes intimate landscapes, sometimes external and some others internal, as they unleash a story between the two that has not yet been revealed.
