Listening to the Space in My Room
Adhering to a solitary intimacy while simultaneously acting as an ode to human endeavour and shared impulses toward fulfillment through art, Listening to the Space in my Room is a moving testament to existence and our endless search for meaning and authenticity. The film’s precise yet enigmatic sound-image construction carries a rare emotional weight.
