Celluloid Dream Path is a travel journal through digitally received emotions, transfixing them in the physicality of 35mm reverse film. A common thread of pain and resistance leads through themes of separation, exile, and longing for a reset. The animals provide steady guidance on this journey, leading towards reunification with Mother Earth.

Each frame of the 35mm film encapsulates a moment of emotional resonance, reflecting the intricate dance between digital and physical realms.

This version of Celluloid Dream Path is presented without sound, reflecting the absence of my family, who provide the soundtrack to my life. It is solely a visual component. The silence underscores the themes of separation and longing, amplifying the visual narrative of the film.
