Through the lens of a long range thermal military camera A LACK OF CLARITY investigates an industrial hazard landscape. The all seeing camera pans, tilts, zooms and attempts to pull focus on the unaware wanderers, gamblers, drinkers and selfie takers of the surveilled streets. An aimless nocturnal wandering through the strongly lit and populated city opens up a fragmented connection between the lighting of Paris at the end of the 17th century and the potential surveillance of the hazy dreams of the protagonist. While watching the surveilled city in a limbo state of awakeness and dreams the insomniac voice reflects upon the acceleration towards totalitarian surveillance happening around him.
