Whether political, sociological or social questions. In one's own life and that of others. Living, eating, loving. In art and philosophy. Everywhere man asks the question of "naturalness". How do I behave naturally? Do I have to behave naturally? What is natural? What is nature? This question occupies the most diverse people, have the most varied traits and characteristics. Man and woman as natural order or structures created by man? Meat consumption as natural predator behavior or factory farming? Nature-related living and urban planning? The topic covers all questions of human life. In this short film, this question should be discussed abstractly. Not by specific subject-relatedness, but by the juxtaposition of subjective ideas about the abstract nature of nature from the perspective of a Western white man.

Gaze & Depiction

Gaze & Depiction is a three-minute visual examination of Laura Mulvey's essay “Visual Pleasure and Narrative Cinema ”. It initially uses the Male Gaze as a conventional introduction method, which traditionally objectifies the woman, then presents it as such convention and openly tries to break it. The film shows the efforts of the character and the director to introduce the female gaze at all points of view: the characters' view within the film, the viewers' view, and the camera's/director's view.

On his train ride home after a long day of god knows what, watching his own reflection, all sorts of (non-)sense crosses his mind.

This movie, shot entirely in a perfectly circular aspect ratio, showcases one couple's morning routine in all its banality, as they get ready for work. The incredibly diverse lifestyles that are lived in our society suggest that the concept of normality is something that no longer has a place in people's minds. Nevertheless, the concept of "normality" significantly influences the lives of people - based only on different themes, actions, objects and subjects. This is not limited to conservative lifestyles. It is not the task of this film to criticize conventional forms of life, but to question the concept of convention in the unconventional. "Normal" means something quite different for very different people.
