Endearing Insanity

| #16 Last Night on Earth
(Film-Shop, Kasseler Dokfest@KiezKino im Film-Shop)

In a small apartment kitchen, a person waits. There is a tense atmosphere in this room, seemingly far away from any other human. Here, the protagonist reflects on their longing for a connection to the outside world, for closeness and contact. The words they find for this are collected from online message boards, sometimes absurd, sometimes sincere and intimate. Their body finds space in cabinets, microwaves, sinks, thus connecting the interior and exterior in a sensual yet eerie way. In his 3D animation film ENDEARSING INSANITY, Poyen Wang takes us to a non-place that couldn't be more personal. Eroticism and horror collide and together explore the boundaries of our self-empowerment in an estranged environment.
