Comme un poisson dans l’eau

Hong Kong｜2004｜Dance ｜Color｜28 min｜No Dialogue
A thirty-something midlife crisis unfolds as a frantic escapade in a city that appears both familiar and disorienting. In an effort to escape from himself, the middle-aged urban dweller, portrayed by dance artist Yuri Ng, attempts to break all physical and metaphysical boundaries by wandering around the city in the most unconventional manner. The film acts as a time machine, transporting us back to the cityscape of Hong Kong in 2004, conjuring an alienated universe created by the renowned French video artist Seba Lallemand.
