Immaterial Terrain

Synopsis

Immaterial Terrain is made along a stretch of the UK coast around Sizewell nuclear power station. Camera in hand, Richardson walked this coastline. These walks – pilgrimages and acts of protest – structure a film that documents a singular and fragile landscape at an uncertain moment.
