An Absence of Reciprocity in Vulnerability, Losses and Risks

Adéla Komrzý / Czech Republic / 2017 / World Premiere / 9 min.


synopsis

A documentary study of the eye and its functions. A compilation of images from various places gives the function of the eye new meanings. It is a tool for instilling fear, the soldier uses it to find his target, and looking into the eye of your executioner can cause him to doubt his actions. What happens when the eye stops looking?
