52 Blue

A lone whale called 52 Blue wanders the ocean, singing a song. A song accompanied by a ghostlike soundscape. How can life exist without the presence of the other, of another, of someone else? Whales sing to survive, to mate, to travel, to pass the time, and also for no reason at all. 52 Blue, a “special” species of whale, calls at the frequency of 52 hertz, a pitch so high that no other whale can bear its company. As for human beings: what makes people distance themselves and find being with others unbearable? We know, don’t we? And singing… Do you only sing in the shower? Singing can be a cry for help. Relaxation. Lust.
