About this submission

In a fairy-tale settlement hidden in the forest, a ruler decides to take the Sun, believing that control over light will bring order and safety. Instead, warmth, rhythm, and bodily balance disappear. As darkness settles, the community begins to fracture—nature slows, relationships erode, and vulnerability becomes visible. The Sun is an allegorical fable about power and possession, told through silence, ritual, and symbolic imagery. Rooted in a feminist perspective, the film reflects on how authority is built through extraction, and how the desire to own a life-giving force ultimately destroys the possibility of collective and embodied existence.
