at the pace of the body

a walking documentary

At its core, the film explores the role of the body in modern society and ways to restore embodiment as a place of belonging in the world.

Along the way, we meet and interview people from different walks of life from monks to workers to pilgrims.

A middle-aged man with gray hair and stubble, eyes closed, wearing a pink cap, a patterned bandana around his neck, and a white striped shirt, against a black background.

Carrying little more than a camera, our own presence, and an open question, the journey becomes an embodied inquiry into what it means to inhabit a body.

Walking is not just a method of travel, but a way of thinking, sensing, and listening.

Along the way, intimate encounters emerge.

Conversations with strangers reveal how culture, geography, memory, and lived experience shape our relationship to the body and inform where, and whether, we feel at home.


Each meeting leaves a trace, expanding the question rather than resolving it.

Aerial view of farmland with fields divided by tree-lined borders and a forest in the background, under a partly cloudy sky.
A lightning bolt strikes down through dark, stormy clouds over a rural area with trees and a road.

Home Body unfolds within the act of walking itself. Time stretches. Landscapes pass.

The body enters into dialogue with wind, pavement, mountains, and city streets.

From the space between steps, the film gathers gestures, glances, fragments of language, and poetic images of movement and terrain.

We are Celina Schadow  and Lorenz Weber.

Our walking-art practice is rooted in shared experience. The way we walk, observe, listen and create is inseparable from the way we move through the world together. Long-distance walking is both method and metaphor. It allows us to attune to landscapes, to each other, and to the subtle shifts within and around us. What surrounds us becomes material.

HOME BODY, our first film, created while crossing Europe on foot, reflects on home as something carried in the body itself. Shaped by presence, distance, memory and motion, it traces inner shifts that surface during solitude, wilderness and open time.

Together these works form an ongoing inquiry into how walking and living close to nature reveal the fragile transitions between outer environment and inner world. As partners in life and art, we create work that rises from shared experience and attentive observation.
