    • Synopsis
    • Pendulum depicts the search for an equilibrium between the past and an uncertain future. A woman knowledge keeper carries on her shoulders her most precious legacy: the liberation of her soul. This legacy sets in motion a spiritual choreography in which a group of men master their own freedom as they confront the complexities of their humanity. In the midst of this perpetual exorcism, they assimilate their liberation under a shower of white comets. What will remain of our essence? A new day begins.
