TEMAS E INFLUENCIA

Nostalgia

The circumstances that circles the protagonist influences in his worldview, to understand his history, we need to know the forces that surround's him.

Through the constant cultural references we capture the zeitgeist.

Liminal Spaces

Not being in a certain place, positioning in the verge between what it was and what it will be. The most visual way to show it is through Liminal Spaces, one of the most famous subcultures across the internet.

It is the state of mind of our protagonist. One of the things that he feels, but unable to express. Gon does not belong to any group, he is just the way it is and just want to be left alone.

A Singular Narrative

Through a dynamic montage, with fast cuts, swift sequences and a Discontinuous linearity that forces the spectator to focus in details and involves him in the process of creation.
