The Contract

Rocky, ruined walls of a building have a shadow of a person cast over them, in the centre of the image. Behind them, a line of large green trees sits, with dusty, rolling hills in the background.

The Contract is an entirely archival, essayistic feature documentary that investigates the ghosts of empire embedded in one of the twenty-first century’s most ambitious energy projects: the Baku–Tbilisi–Ceyhan (BTC) pipeline.
