Terrarium unfolds through seven tightly woven perspectives projected across a double-screen film. Each character acts as a seedling, embodying urgent socio-ecological challenges and sparking alternative ways of seeing and responding to the world. These intertwined visions propose that meaningful solutions emerge through symbiosis—between human and non-human communities and with the socio-ecological environments we share.

In this short film, Margie Gillis becomes the very embodiment of modern dance - she steps into the light, lifts her arms and unleashes her extraordinary mane into the air.
