根欲 (2024)
THE INESCAPABLE DESIRE OF ROOTS
6 MIN | SINGAPORE | MANDARIN, ENGLISH
SYNOPSIS
A man with hair growing wildly over his body is taken by manic expressions of ecstasy and anguish. He struggles with the hair becoming a mode of his subjugation, while being overwhelmed by the explosive jubilance of its sprouting. Streaks of hair and colors, created by modified, overlaid 16mm and Super 8 film loop projections, clash with this bizarre vision of discipline and the body in Singapore.
