Daniel and Laurie are on the run from a near future world of climate transformation. Emotionally distraught from their hidden pasts, the pair set out on a journey through the wild landscape of Newfoundland, Canada. While news of global climate catastrophes is broadcast on their car radio, they drive towards the Tablelands, an extraordinary, Mars-like landscape in the middle of Gros Morne National Park where one can directly walk on the mantle of the Earth. Gradually, the climate-change transformed landscape exerts a force on them as if it was a conscious, living and breathing entity. Animate sits at the crossroads of performance, installation and radio play utilizing the newest Virtual and Augmented Reality technologies in order to blur the experience between the physical and the digital world.
