Plantation Tragedy(2026)

Plantation Tragedy Synopsis

Plantation Tragedy presents a surreal dreamscape where trees, labourers, scientists and artificial intelligence confront one another in a shared state of exhaustion. Four figures—Francis the overseer, Dona the vegetal communicator, Watiman the scientist and Cyborg the sentient machine—voice conflicting desires for progress, justice and rest. The oil palms begin to groan, complain and ultimately refuse to produce, a fantasy of vegetal strike in action. As the trees “strike,” the plantation becomes a scene of imagined resistance, inviting us to consider whether the Earth itself might one day refuse and retaliate.

Plantation Tragedy (2026) is a drama and science fiction film directed by Elia Nurvista, released on August 28, 2026 with a runtime of 30m.
