*'Peut-être ne suffit-il pas de dire que les images sont une illusion,
Puisque les chaînes sont réelles.'*
combining film with performance art is one thing, but then adding plato's allegory of the cave takes it to a whole other level. there's nothing i love more than a film that can have me sitting in silence for a little while.
but what if we do try to flee the cave, would we be able to turn back and let everyone know of what we witnessed? that everything that we know was an illusion? that we can break the chains of our 'reality'?
please protect alice at all costs.
