Limbo

  • Shehani Fernando
  • Federico Fasce
There are approximately 31,500 asylum seekers in the UK waiting for a decision about their asylum status. This film allows you to experience what it is like to live in this period of limbo, waiting for a decision that will affect the rest of your life.

Narrated by actress Juliet Stevenson, this VR experience was made with 3D lidar scanning and photogrammetry techniques creating an otherworldly aesthetic that captures this disorientating period in asylum seekers' lives. It garnered accolades at a number of festivals winning the main VR award at both the Transatlantyk festival and the Thessaloniki International Film Festival.
Screened at IDFA, PHI Centre, GoShort, Haifa IFF.
