Synopsis

A demon roams through an ominous synthetic environment, reconstructed from satellite images of Russian air bases in Syria, Belarus, and Ukraine.
In ONSET, Engelhardt and Cinkevich craft an unholy alliance of medieval demonology, investigative research, and CGI animation to uncover the hidden life of these military outposts.
