The human body is in constant dialogue with both visible and invisible forces. This curated screening of short films delves into the complex relationship between our physical selves and the unseen currents that shape our existence—from environmental pollution to the omnipresent gaze of surveillance, the invisible weight of social norms, the inevitable passage of time, and the haunting pull of mysticism. Projected on 16mm and Super 8 film!
