Description:
AGAINST FILIAL PIETY explores a core Chinese belief: the deepest failure of filial piety lies not in failing to produce descendants. The film examines the emotional weight of this unfulfilled responsibility. This five-minute, single-shot, 16mm experimental film features the word "barren" rendered in 34 different languages, sourced from dictionaries. As the word is magnified, individual characters dissolve into landscapes and abstract forms. Colorful anatomical drawings and depictions of childbirth are juxtaposed with monotone Xerox copies of "barren," which fragment and converge throughout the film.
