SHACKLES_FROM STILLNES TO AWAKENING

Prod Co: SMILE

“Shackles_FromStillnesToAwakening,” a kind of audiovisual experiment shot on Super 8 for the Straight 8 Festival, which is held every year in conjunction with the Cannes Film Festival.

“Shackles” is about immobility and impassiveness, about the spell that screens have over us and how what we once believed to be the solution to many of our problems has further subjected us to physical, mental, and emotional petrification.
But in this case, what once subjected us also gives us a glimmer of hope, placing the power to awaken in our hands.
