Eclipses
2024

In the film Eclipses, a tall man enters an elevator and casts a shadow over a young woman inside. The camera shows the space shrinking, and she, feeling pressured, tries to climb past him to escape. She walks through a parking lot and finds a truck that dwarfs her in scale. The man enters a spacious apartment and gazes at the city through the window. A hearing aid in his ear fills the emptiness of the place with sounds from outside. The woman gets into the truck, lies down, and falls asleep. At the same time, a young man wakes up, walks along the edge of a pool, and notices a woman in the water. The two figures attract and repel each other, circling in ellipses inside the pool like celestial bodies in a space where gravity’s laws are different. The four characters are connected through the relationship between their bodies and the places they inhabit. Their scale activates objects and architectural spaces.

Using eclipses as a metaphor, the film explores the subtle influence bodies exert on one another, revealing physical and suggestive connections that quietly unsettle traditional power structures.
