O

By Rúnar Rúnarsson

With: Ingvar Sigurðsson

I walk in a circle
around everything which is.
And within this circle
is your world.

My shadow fell for a moment
on the window’s glass.

I walk in a circle
around everything which is.
And outside this circle
is my world.

(Outside the Circle by Steinn Steinarr /

translated by Alan Thompson)

 

O is a humanistic and poetic story of a fragile man trying to achieve a simple task where his main obstacle is within himself.
