Synopsis
“Blessed Are Those Who Grieve” is an experimental short that offers you a slice of an inner, surreal landscape of grief. Two performers torment with immense sorrow in sand and slime, while a Hong Kong writer attempts to articulate a trauma that cannot be named. Melting somatic work, multilayered soundscapes, and digital spheres, the movie explores a hybridity of mourning. The audience witnesses the birth of a creature—the grief that sits inside us—pushing towards the reconciliation of a collective grief.
