METAMORPHOSIS | SHORT FILM | 2026
FILM SELECTION - SADLERS WELLS DIGITAL FESTIVAL & NATIONAL UK DANCE AWARDS
METAMORPHOSIS IS SEEN THROUGH THE EYES OF A DAUGHTER AS SHE WATCHES HER FATHER AGE AND LOSE HIS GRIP ON LIFE. HIS BODY TWISTS, FRACTURES, AND CRUMBLES, EACH MOVEMENT TRACING THE EROSION OF STRENGTH, PURPOSE, AND IDENTITY. SHE BEARS WITNESS TO HIS QUIET UNRAVELING, POWERLESS TO INTERVENE. DRAWING ON Metamorphosis, THE FILM EXPLORES THE SLOW, UNSETTLING TRANSFORMATION OF A LIFE UNCHOSEN, WHERE BODY, MIND, AND MEANING SLIP AWAY UNDER THE WEIGHT OF TIME.
