Gaze

This animation was inspired by a poem by Szymborska (Vietnam). When I read the poem it seemed that every murderer, every person who took a life, had their own reasons for doing so, maybe they were once victims and now they are just seeking revenge. I tried to find the most realistic and direct way to show the impression of war on the lives of ordinary people. From the beginning to the end. In war, everyone has to choose a position. But do positions really exist, or are they just illusions created by states and governments to divert internal conflicts and consolidate their power?
