FANTASTIC SHORTS II
The ruthless rhythm of life often throws us into hopeless situations. We try to outrun approaching death, to exceed the supposed limits of our capabilities, and to fight injustice, sometimes even by means of an unknown virus. Evil spirits shall be expelled or conjured in ritualistic ceremonies to exact vengeance. The lines between hunter and hunted are blurred, foreboding melodies and menacing silence make us painfully aware of what we already know: “we’re all gonna die, so we might as well go in style.” Until then we’ll dance to the unrelenting beat of time and find satisfaction in our daily routines. Here at SLASH you’ll try not to scream, unless it’s with pleasure.
