Fuck my black holes, they are bottomless
This short film was inspired by the composition of the same name from the musical cycle of the Georgian experimental improviser-percussionist Zura Makharadze dedicated to Dionysus. This visual work in abstract form shows classical transformations experienced during the Dionysian mystery, passed through the personal connotation of the eternal cycle of death through destruction and rebirth; individual and global mental processes that go through the path of either destruction or creation, and the line between spiritual process and deep madness is completely blurred here.
The film's scenes consist of performances by two queer artists and musicians: Darja Kazimira (Kazimir) and Zura Makharadze
