Synopsis of Ghost Wall
En el norte de Inglaterra, lejos de las ciudades pero cerca de la civilización, Silvie y su familia viven como si fueran antiguos británicos, sobreviviendo con las herramientas y el conocimiento de la Edad de Hierro. Durante dos semanas, se unen a un curso de antropología para recrear la vida en tiempos más simples. Rodeados de bosques de abedules y serbales, preparan estofado con raíces recolectadas y conejo cazado. Silvie comienza a imaginar otra vida, una que podría incluir ir a la universidad, viajar, elegir su propia ropa y comida, y expresar su opinión. Los antiguos británicos construían muros fantasma para protegerse de los invasores, barricadas de estacas coronadas con cráneos ancestrales. Cuando el grupo construye uno propio, encuentran una conexión espiritual con el pasado. ¿Qué sigue sino el sacrificio humano? Una historia mítica y sorprendentemente oportuna que nos invita a reflexionar sobre cuánto hemos avanzado desde las "mentes primitivas" de nuestros antepasados.
