There Is No Alternative
Overview
This short was conceived in the cultural fires of social media consumption addiction. Philosopher Byung-Chul Han has termed our epoch "the burnout society," where we are ensnared in the "inferno of the same." From the demands of social media, to FOMO, to the pressures of hustle culture, this experimental film explores how there is no alternative to the world of being perpetually plugged into the feeding pipe of CONTENT.
