My Extended Arm

9:55 min
Tokyo, 2019

A young woman ponders the possibility of humans having different looking body parts as she sits in her office. In a kitchen somewhere, two women are melting plastic objects and dancing with them.

The parallel narratives bounce off each other, as they engage with fantasies that explore the human body’s appearance, how it moves and relates with objects from daily life.

The film explores the relationship between these elements and their physical context; how intervening, warping, or distorting the shape of things might change its role, or reveal its futuristic evolution.
