Square the Circle is a little circular film about one persons round trip out to the (un)known universe and into themselves, in search of a sense of belonging. To square the circle is an attempt to do the impossible: look into infinity, accept the perpetual passing of time, survive a long dark winter in the Northern Hemisphere or find ones own place when you don't quite fit in. To be a circle in a world of squares.
