WHILE THE GREEN GRASS GROWS is a trance-like, epic diary in seven chapters that delves into the wonder of everyday things and events, following the flow of emergence and disappearance. A meditative trip composed by Mettler's poetic power and sensitivity in dealing with light, image, rhythm and sound. An experience of timeless spaces where everything is connected to everything else. A rumination and reflection on dying, origins, dreams, memory and the elementary human urge to tell stories. Soon to be released in its entirety in 2025.
