5m 23s | Experimental | English

When the goddess of life embraces the love of humanity, she relinquishes her immortality. She imparts the wisdom of spirituality and reincarnation to human beings, and together they walk to the other side.

Statement

This film is inspired by the live performance of Zhixuan Zhu and Nicole Schwartz in 2023. The original 40-minute performance is based on the interpretation of Buddhist mythology on reincarnation. This dance film highlights the affection between two female spirits in the original work. By bringing embodied movement into a non-theater environment, the film allows the body to transition freely between the spiritual and real worlds, bridging the realms of the living and the dead. Through the voice of the goddess and the evocative sounds of the underworld, we are guided to experience various forms of life, ultimately freeing ourselves from physical bodies and emotions in the process of reincarnation.
