The work adopts a form in between an essay film and a video diary. Rooted in cross-cultural encounters, the narrative follows the journey of a flâneur figure navigating diverse urban milieus, weaving together the video materials captured during these explorations.
Wandering around, the protagonist glimpses echoes of some renowned architectural designs in mundane habitats and streetscapes. Comparison of these fortuitous parallels serves as a guiding thread, unfolding a discourse on transgression and the allure of forbidden pleasures. Through an anatomical lens, the work reveals the intricate interplay between the built environment, body representations, and desires.
