The most beautiful triviality in the world can take many forms and provide many a surprise. In this program, bodies transform (GEMINI, EYES AND HORNS), merge with nature (BREATHING PSOAS) or take a trip to Wonderland (KLIMAX). In addition, the films address sexuality on the net and related codes (LONG_LUKE, COMMUNITY GUIDELINES, ZUMINDEST BIN ICH DRAUSSEN GEWESEN) and show homosexual themes in both humans (VIRGIN MY ASS) and animals (IN NATURE).

The film creates a speculative-utopian body image and existence of human and nature. How can the body become related to the nature? How do they transform together?The breath opens a performative play of transformation: stone to skin, breath to wind, voice to vulva, smoke to blood, water to wind. The magical-poetic transformation of the actors allows nature to perform as somatic body and psychogram

The film presents a naked model with covered eyes. The images are followed by a robot voice-over stating the social media community guidelines about nudity: what is adult nudity, which content is forbidden, and what are the consequences for violating the guidelines. Isn’t it weird that we are still living in a world where some parts of the human body are considered a taboo?

In nature, a couple is a male and a female. Well, not always! A couple is also a female and a female. Or a male and a male. You may not know it, but homosexuality isn’t just a human story.
