The video explores a distorted longing for closeness, projected onto a car—an object charged with autonomy, protection, power, and control. It unfolds as a speculative anatomy of life on the edge of collapse, where the boundaries between subject and object dissolve. The body becomes a site where internal tensions and external pressures converge, giving way to a transformation that is not heroic, but intimate and strange. Isolation, exhaustion, and desire begin to shape new forms of existence.
