Hush is an immersive Virtual Reality experience rooted in the Northern myths of the merpeople, who lured sailors and longing souls to the sea. Like the lost ones of the past, you begin by the seaside. The world around you dissolves as you hear the calling from the sea, and you are submerged in a suggestive underwater world, where the distinction between reality and imagination, man and nature, disappears. Hush is a stand-alone VR piece, but it is also a companion piece to the hybrid documentary film Elsewhere, also directed by Vibeke Bryld and supported by New Danish Screen at the Danish Film Institute, which is based in the same universe as Hush. Elsewhere premiered at CPH:DOX 2021.
