"Midnight Stories 2" - The Martian

Inside a bathroom, a woman dissolves. Not into water—but into identity. Set in an oneiric, liminal space, this experimental short dissects the most banal of routines—eliminate, change, wash—and refracts them through the prism of identity.

It exists in the space between viewer and image, where meaning is slippery and selfhood runs down the drain.
