By researching and observing the relationships between people around me, I find objectification does happen in everyone's relationships. I envision a new world in which the majority of mankind is to be used as tools, and they will not be treated like humans anymore. So I made a performance video to show how this world would work. Besides, I designed a book using the scenes of my film to explain this world and also put some further thinking in it.
By shooting a video about this world that will present the objectification relationship between people exaggeratedly, I hope the audience can not only be shocked by this film but think a lot about the relationship between people now.

I removed the color from the video and turned it into black and white in order to make the content of the performance more clear, get rid of the interference of color, and pass the most intuitive information to the audience. At the same time, it also presents a sense of terror ruled by the unconscious.
There is a sequence between the five scenes, which is a coherent and complete story. Besides, it also shows the transformation of the ruler's identity at the end.
Besides, I designed a book using the scenes of my film to explain this world and also wrote some further thinking like EPILOGUE and BEHIND SCENES THOUGHTS in it.
