Comment Section

a young lady struggles to find some meaning.

HEAD is at its most basic, an act of suggestion. A moving image that inverts the default performer-observer dynamic and for the length of its runtime attempts to mutate the viewer and HEAD into self-reflexive spectacles. Shot in a country where queerness is criminalised, and the body is rendered evidence, HEAD shrinks the (policed) surface area of narrative and frames an implied sexual act in the reach of no one watching.

inspired by the works of Bas Jan Ader, the experimental film explores the concept of losing oneself to darkness, becoming one with it, and finding escapism through it.
