Synopsis

A young man experiences childhood memories through his body. The performance, filmed in a familiar but cold space, brings into play the ambiguity between a home and a museum.As he reenacts the body language of him as child, the use of physical movements of blinds eventually transforms the home into an apparatus and brings forth a reflection about the relation between “subject” and “object”.
