USA / 2025 / 9mins / Experimental / English

In a distant world beneath a sky washed in permanent green, the last survivors of a dying civilization—an isolated group of women—perform an ancient ritual of dance to
summon a being from the cosmos. As their planet crumbles around them, their synchronized, otherworldly movements ripple through space, calling forth an ethereal
extraterrestrial presence. When the being arrives, shimmering with celestial energy, she grants the women the chance to complete their ritual—a cosmic ceremony that
blurs the boundaries between life and transformation. As the women dance, their bodies dissolve into radiant energy, merging with the infinite web of the universe in a
transcendent act of creation. Blending experimental cinematography, hypnotic soundscapes, and visceral choreography, Green Bay defies conventional science fiction and dance film narratives, immersing viewers in a surreal, sensory experience that explores themes of survival, ritual, and the cyclical nature of life in the face of extinction.
