il sentire dell'occhio
{the hearing of the eye}
Synopsis
Il sentire dell'occhio is an experimental piece that explores death through a post-humanist lens.
Our understanding of the animal other changes once it has died. We look away, no longer in awe and the wonder becomes abject. The film re-centers the animal in its passing, compelling the viewer to linger on death, reconsidering its value and opening the possibility for empathy.
