A Child's Metaphysics

Finished

こどもの形而上学

A child with a head made of numerals, another who winds his own face and carries it under his arm, and a child whose eyes are provided by fishes. These are just a few of the strange and melancholic beings that inhabit this world. One child lies on the floor, head-butting his own identity, while another cannot speak because a zipper seals his mouth shut. When he undoes it, another zipper lies beneath.

This short film explores the ecology and philosophy of these children, blending sadness and humor as they navigate their fragmented existence. Each child embodies a different aspect of identity and perception, questioning what it means to be whole. Through their surreal interactions, the story delves into the nature of self and the absurdity of existence.
