Ryan struggles to find meaning in his provisional existence, exploring sex and death and the idea of ‘becoming something.’ This surreal film, enveloped in a classical string quartet piece, is a rumination on death, time, and the nature of existence. It posits the idea of a human life as a static, four-dimensional entity that exists at a specific moment in time and cannot be said to truly begin or end.
