Since the day I was born(es)
Since the day I was born is composed through a reflection on remorse and the search for mental liberation from the death of the individual. In the short film, barely two minutes long, an anonymous man remembers all the moments in which he has failed in the game of life; moments in which he has made mistakes, or has chosen the wrong option, harming someone close to him or himself, while his body hangs from a rope and is little by little deprived of oxygen. He regrets what he has experienced since the day he was born, but he also regrets the drastic decision he has just made.
Make Visible the Ghost(en)
'As for Paul’s case, what fascinated him through his camera—moving through space, often with a macro lens and the rack focus, the focus is shifting non-stop as his gaze moves along—his perception of the world itself became the subject of his film. Everything in his films has an equal presence; it is an animistic world. The nature of his reality is nothing but flux, and everything flows in the space. It is not a dream but the hyper-reality of his gaze and mind dissolving boundaries between the internal and external.' - Aki Onda
