ELEGY OF A VOYAGE tells the story of a man, who embarks alone on a dark journey across vast snow-covered expanses, boundaries border-crossings and sea to arrive in a foreign country. In a highly-industrialised area, he is carried away into a stream of traffic. He chronicles in detail what he sees, those he meets - all that lights his path.
He eventually arrives at the doors of a palace that seems almost abandoned, and enters a ghostly museum. In the moonlight, the traveller discovers the goal of his voyage: a painting by Peter Saenredam, : "St. Mary's Square", painted by the artist in his presence… in the 17th century.
