.TV

Voicemails left by an anonymous caller from the future guide us to the remote islands of Tuvalu, a place the international media has described as “the first country to disappear due to rising sea levels”. Surrounded by thousands of miles of open water, much of Tuvalu’s revenue comes from its country-code web extension .TV, a popular domain choice among global video-streaming and television industries. A found footage essay-film reflecting on the notion of home and an escape into cyberspace where rising waters will never reach it.
