FILM

ORIGIN

Although the four parts are placed in a certain order, they are nevertheless parallel: We have chosen for each part a theme as the first "Original Conceptual Body". Part One represents matter; Part Two humans; Part Three animals, micro- organisms, plants; Part Four the soul. Each original body is made up of each of the elements (human, matter, animal, plant, ...).

Through this short film, we would first like to make a bid for environmental protection through the concept of a community of living things in which all elements live and die together. Then we want to establish the hope that everything is possible, and thus appeal to people to have the courage to confront existing definitions and gain the freedom to act according to our desires!

DESIR

The short film "Desire" shows such a relationship; just as John Lennon fell in love with Yoko Ono at first sight watching her perform, so do characters 1 and 2 in the film. The red plastic bag in the film represents the hearts of these two characters. Such an abstract object does not need to be explained during the course of the film because the characters understand each other. This bag represents our common heart.

However, although we share the same heart, we have been separated by our bodies for too long. There will then be a haziness caused by this bad contact. This vagueness also makes us suspicious of each other. It is said that when you love the most, you are not brave, but on the contrary scared and sensitive, because you care. You pay attention to every word, every look, every emotion, even the rhythm of the breath. Then, we pretend to be in a strange state, using the language of all things to express ourselves and test things. In the film, the eyes of the camera represent the peripheral vision of the other.

Behind every extreme we usually find its opposite. Desire is not a desire through passion, nor possession or dependence. It is like "the art of love", like Johannes Brahms for Clara Schumann. The more you love, the calmer you are. Joy and sorrow happen together, we grow together.

Besides the characters in the film, the tree is also a main role because it is genderless. We are like the tree with a hermaphrodite soul, but ours is incomplete until the encounter occurs, as happens with characters 1 and 2.
