Hun Tun

Magdalena Hejzlarová / Czech Republic, France / 2024 / International Premiere / 14 min.


synopsis

The experience of a gradual descent down the spiral of exhaustion, lined with pharmaceutical pick-me-ups, is told in images that combine stop-motion with other animation techniques. An autobiographical account of the experience is interwoven with a Taoist story about the powerful lord of chaos Hun Tun, interpreted by the author's voiceover.
