This is our atempt to be as much abstract possible to talk about a very profound need that most people have, that is to be accepted even if its means to no be yourself to please others. And how the world, most of the time, will eat up when you do that. It’s about prejudice, intolerence and violence. And how absurd all of this is.
This work came about when we, the directors, wanted to talk about this need that most people have to be just like or better than everybody else. And how we wanted to mix thr movie genres, a little of horror movie, with comedy, silent movie, as well using a lot girly colors to tell this story in the best way, with all these elements that we thought that ere needed for it.
