Embark on an extraordinary cinematic journey in a film entitled “Sensus” by theBunch. Much more than just a ski movie, Sensus transcends the conventional boundaries of winter sports films. Delve into a cosmic odyssey, that explores the universe, the birth of the Milky Way, the dance of our solar system, and the evolution of humankind. Enormous and microscopic, it challenges the ordinary ski movie narrative and really makes you think.
Building on Their Momentum
Following the massive success of their previous film, “Many Fantasies Later” the exceptionally gifted and imaginative Swedish creators behind theBunch have chosen a different path for their latest creation. This time, the focus shifts towards the realm of visual effects, AI generated imagery and non-verbal storytelling, offering a cinematic canvas where skiing takes on a secondary role. Special recognition is due to Alric Ljunghager for the awe-inspiring space age visual effects that make this film such a trip.
Life is Short – Get Yours
In the humble perspective of this author, the core essence of this visually enchanting film lies in reminding us of the fleeting nature of our existence. It beautifully underscores the insignificance of an individual being within the vastness of the cosmos. Skiing is almost used more as a metaphorical tool. It depicts an oddly specific skill, mastered over thousands of years – the art of sliding on frozen water. “Sensus” brings us to our current moment in time. We are currently in a surreal reality, where technology besieges us, and the constraints of basic biology are no longer impediments—evident in the surreal night skiing scenes and mind-boggling drone shots.
High Praise from T-$, Tanner Hall
Amidst the complexities of the modern world, the film inspires you to embrace what resonates with your true essence. Life is short so do what you love and love what you do. Sensus is available for purchase at www.thebunch.tv
