The Inescapable Desire of Roots

When hair begins to sprout wildly all over a man's body, his struggle becomes a resistance against subjugation in which the human anguish is palpable. Combining overlaid 16mm and Super 8 film loops, this manic new short by Singaporean duo Mark Chua and Lam Li Shuen is an exploration of the relationship between the body and the city in an ever violent society.

Directors: Mark Chua, Li Shuen Lam
