It explores deep-seated conscious and subconscious thoughts accumulated since childhood, expressed through evocative body movements that mirror our inner turmoil and desire for balance.

This film serves as both a reflection and a rebellion. It is an artistic expression born out of collective trauma, demonstrating the tenacity and creativity that thrive even in the darkest times.

This work captures the universal craving for escape, questioning the delusions we embrace and the alternative realms we seek to survive.
