A monster film with no monsters. Inspired by the existence of taxonomies of monsters at the heart of Early Modern European science, the film explores and reinterprets a way of seeing the natural world that is almost impossible to imagine from today’s vantage point.

This journey into the economic unconscious takes the structure of a series of memories and dreamlike reflections: from the origin of banking in temples to modern ubiquitous networked finance, the temple is sublimated and the psyche projects itself into the abstract domain of value.
