Westcoast is a panorama-video consisting of interweaved scenes mounted on a coastline, which could be anywhere in the early 21 century. Starting from a bubbling primordial soup the view pans along a waterfront in the style of a late transnational financial eclecticism and passes mystical spots such as a giant hippo eating carrots and hectically spinning rubber boats. After a dark spiritual waterway recalling medieval atmospheres, the panorama ends in a cave with refuse-Jacuzzi in which a white woman gazes about herself melancholically.
