襖の奥(河井ゆう美)/ Over Her Curtain (Yumi KAWAI)

Yumi Kawai · Japan · Experimental / Animation · 4 min · 24K views

A woman whose thoughts leap without logic locks away her feelings behind a mirror and a sliding door before heading out, in an animation inspired by the Japanese folk taboo around blood impurity.

A strange, intimate Japanese student animation that turns an old taboo about women's blood into dreamlike imagery.
