This film is an expression of my unease of living in a world that no longer feels stable, where truth is stretched, distorted, and reshaped beyond recognition. It is not just political; it is deeply personal. The structures we once relied upon are crumbling, and with them, our sense of certainty.

Visually, the film is built from a single image, manipulated and reworked in a relentless cycle of fragmentation and reconstruction. This process mirrors the way narratives are twisted, repeated, and reframed until reality itself becomes unstable. The animation reflects this collapse, geometric forms clash and dissolve, breaking apart and reforming in a continuous state of dissonance.

The spoken word performance, delivered by my alter ego Dexuality Valentino, a response to the chaos, the confusion, and the sense of being lost in an era of rising extremism and disinformation. It is a voice searching for something to cling to in a world where meaning has become fluid, where fact is no longer fact, and where the repetition of a lie is enough to make it real.
