What begins as an exploratory documentary on the fascinating life of fossils, turns into a personal musing into the evolution of memory, as it is compared to the geological eras of our Earth. The exploration and decryption of the perceivable reality from the perspective of a personal and alternative archaeology is imagined as dystopian structures, dynamics, and scenarios generated by the overlaps of an I simultaneously generic and interior with an environment that it transforms, altering it. The film mingles various quotes from scientific research on fossils, philosophers and artists.
