Experiencing Interruptions?

Do you want to see me do the striptease too?

In a neon-slivered hotel room, a man sets his trap: cameras hidden behind wine glasses, measured lingerie hung like equations. When he leaves, a woman enters. She adjusts his lenses to frame the empty bed, then performs a calculated striptease for the surveillance feed.

As her dance ends, she removes his cameras and installs her own. The arrival of his next target ruptures the room's fragile geometry. Blood blooms off-screen while lenses multiply—his predatory gaze replaced by her surgical observation.

When she finally packs his original device into her case, we see it now holds a collection of cameras, each bearing traces of viewer fingerprints. The cycle’s true subject emerges: not the hunt, but the eyes queuing to consume it.

Director Biography - Jingxuan XU

Storytelling is at the heart of my approach, woven with a postmodern style that layers visual and auditory language, inviting viewers into a space between reality and dream.
In every project, I take on not only the directorial vision but also engage deeply in editing and cinematography, ensuring that each detail aligns with the overarching narrative. I believe the truth of art lies in defying conventions, crafting pieces that resonate emotionally. Rather than following trends, I’m drawn to finding unique ways to communicate with the audience through visual language and creative experimentation.
If you’re intrigued by imagery that holds tension and individuality, my work is your gateway to this compelling journey. I look forward to exploring the endless possibilities of the visual world with you.
