Misérable Miracle
みじめな奇蹟
Inspired by Henri Michaux's book of poetry and drawings, this animated short follows the author's experiences with mescaline. Guided by a feverish voiceover, the poems explore the limits of language and perception, creating connections between sound, meaning, shapes, and movement.
The film maps the human psyche to the edges of alienation and transcendence, propelling viewers beyond the page. Through masterful vision and execution, it delves into the boundaries of consciousness and the search for meaning in altered states.
