GUIDED BY THE SOUND...

We explore the powerful nature of the polar regions and face our inner self until we enter a state of harmony. An iceberg is cracking, the ice flow is breathing and a sled dog is howling…
Electronic music producer Molécule cuts himself off in a village of hunter in Greenland. He records sounds of the Arctic to compose. Inspired by his adventure, -22.7°C VR offers a sensory and introspective trip in the polar regions…

...THE USER IS IN A DEEP LISTENING STATE

Through an initiatory journey, he reconnects with Nature and his inner self. The user navigates between an «outer» dimension, where he discovers a powerful, majestic but dangerous nature; and an « inner » dimension, where he faces his sensations and fears.
Little by little, these two dimensions merge and lead the user to a final state of harmony and communion with the universe.
