The Moon Also Rises

  • Yuyan Wang

Moons are to be shot into space with the aim of eliminating the difference between day and night. Meanwhile, an elderly couple retreat into their apartment, isolated from nature and the outside world. They live there in the glow of neon light and their digital devices, accompanied and instructed almost without interruption by a suggestive, meditative voice from the loudspeaker. "Time is just a feeling. Everything will be fine".
