The Ear of the Sea
L'oreille de la mer
Synopsis
A short film that reexamines the meaning of the ancient Greek myth of transformation in the context of a supposedly "perfect" society, in which love (regardless of sexual orientation) is considered an act of anarchy and subversion of norms. Anyone who breaks the rules and falls in love is punished on their 25th birthday by shedding their human status and being transformed into a plant or animal of their choice. Transfiguration abolishes the historicity of the human body and the limits imposed upon it, as man puts on the body of the species into which he was transfigured and acquires the status and eternity of the species into which he was transfigured.
