    • Synopsis
    • An amateur archaeologist obsessed with electronic waste records images and sounds for ten years, as part of an intuitive investigation. As he shapes a personal, playful and musical diary, he travels the world tirelessly, trying to decipher what his findings hide and how he might interpret them. One day, in a workshop recycling electronic objects, a strange revelation happens. From that moment on, his search takes an unexpected turn and, following the trail of a ghost poet, new questions appear. As time goes by and new ruins accumulate, the archaeologist sees his cat named Pendrive grow up and asks him: "Dear friend, how will history be written in the future? Who will write it?"
      Thus, between absurdity and darkness, the archaeologist will try to understand the current state of technology and its link with memory, in times of environmental crisis and overproduction.
