moving mountains (2024)

6’/animation/KHM

“Moving Mountains” is a 6-minute animation which takes elements from two previous projects, “April 21” and “Brutalism”, and continues related thematic and visual research. The short film explores the relationship between will and reluctance, and the question, where an individual’s motivation comes from.  The film is inspired by my constant travel and immigration - the experience of being a modern nomad in a somewhat trapped geographical setting while entangled by habits I am accustomed to. This nomadic lifestyle, however, leads to a repeated subversion of worldviews, and further to ideological disillusionments and spiritual decadence.  This is in part a result of  historical materialism, and in part active selection, thus creating an antinomical situation. The film is currently in the post-production phase.
