Museum of Resistance and Resilience

Annotation

The image of the ants coming out of the man’s hand, the severed hand, and the woman’s unshaven armpit followed by the sharp sea urchin may all represent/provoke primal fears/instincts. These include: the loss of control, the loss of identity, a fear of intimacy, and a loss of manhood. But, the point of the film is not to deeply analyze these images, but instead to recognize the way they make us feel.
