Synopsis

Nothingness bursts, and lets out something. From a dark, tarry mass beings emerge – genderless, looped and alone in repetitive, aimless motions. Everything changes, when one of them discovers s o m e t h i n g in itself. It extracts a red ball from within itself. Immediately, the ball starts getting bigger, shifting in shape and hypnotising all of the beings. They all unite in an ecstatic, ritual dance – an idea forms a community. The beings lose themselves and are engulfed by the abyss of the substance which resembles volcanic lava. From a cultivated object of vaginal shape, a new life is born, a life which differs from the one that existed before – a colourful, diverse and gendered life.
