HEAD

HEAD poster

HEAD is at its most basic, an act of suggestion. A moving image that inverts the default performer-observer dynamic and for the length of its runtime attempts to mutate the viewer and HEAD into self-reflexive spectacles. Shot in a country where queerness is criminalised, and the body is rendered evidence, HEAD shrinks the (policed) surface area of narrative and frames an implied sexual act in the reach of no one watching.
