A film directed and choreographed by Benjamin Jonsson
Produced by Ocurens

Premiered on NOWNESS and the National Gallery

Driven by relentless choreography and a pulsating electronic score, the film mirrors the speed, saturation, and emotional overload of a digital environment that pulls us together, then drives us apart. Five figures begin aligned, then unravel. Set in a stark world of black and red, the film follows them as they navigate a surrounding mass of dancers in red who repeatedly seize, steer, and consume them against their will. As momentum builds, collective movement collapses and individuals are isolated, overwhelmed, and swallowed. Drawing on the influence of social media and algorithms, the work brings into focus how behaviour, opinion, and identity are shaped - sold to us as tools for connection, yet often pulling us apart.
