A man disappears into the forest. A season is lost. Lovers transcend time. When people wake up one morning, nothing is as it was. In six episodes, ELECTRIC FIELDS tells the story of lonely characters who have resigned themselves to an everyday life full of unfulfilled dreams. But suddenly inexplicable things happen and people wake up from their slumber. A shift in the rules of the world passes through business premises, pubs, hotel rooms and death rooms like a collective impulse. It pulls the characters into foreign cities, sends them into raging storms, leaves them brooding over a light that shouldn’t shine. And suddenly new paths open up in people‘s minds.
