"Murmuration" is the second chapter of the "Hotspot" project. This new chapter goes in another direction that will put the theatrical component in the background to put VR at the center of the experience. Swallowed is designed to be experienced individually rather than in a group.
"Murmuration" is centered on an encounter with a migrant, an African migrant who has not managed to make the trip and who, while presenting himself, takes us with him to the bottom of the Mediterranean Sea as the experience progresses in a tragic narrative.
