16mm & AE Animation to 2K // Sound // Color // 9 Minutes // 2020

Co-Directed by Jennie MaryTai Liu // Sound by Andrew Gilbert

Placid views merge with dizzying, semi-abstract digital animations; avatars in a parable about control. A mesmerizing, menacing voiceover – part body politic regulator, part cyberpunk travel guide – promises order, accountability, and satisfaction, and threatens trouble, polarization, and tears. A fire has been started, movement has gone on to reach multiple points of no return.
