Titan was born from the desire to experiment with the possibilities of screen printing directly on 16 mm film and the possible dialogues with the chemistry of silver film. One bringing the color, the rhythm of a frame and the other the concealment, and the precision of a frame-by-frame construction. The soundtrack is the result of silkscreen printing which also covers the soundtrack of the film. It is remixed and modulated live during the projection.

The sinking of the Titanic is presented in a highly realistic fashion in this tense British drama. The disaster is portrayed largely from the perspective of the ocean liner's second officer, Charles Lightoller. Despite numerous warnings about ice, the ship sails on, with Capt. Edward John Smith keeping it going at a steady clip. When the doomed vessel finally hits an iceberg, the crew and passengers discover that they lack enough lifeboats, and tragedy follows.

As viable water is depleted on Earth, a mission is sent to Saturn's moon Titan to retrieve sustainable H2O reserves from its alien inhabitants. But just as the humans acquire the precious resource, they are attacked by Titan rebels, who don't trust that the Earthlings will leave in peace.
