D3C05 Out of Competition

Blaze Gonzalez, Hannah Gaengler, 2021, US, 4 min

D3C05 is a sci-fi love letter to Miami’s Art Deco architecture. The film takes the idea of optimistic futurism and reimagines the concept within a neo-human world, where the boundaries between human, nature, and object coalesce; a world where synesthetic communication and performative rituals reign.
