The film Sonic Rituals is based on the film Undead Cycle which has been selected for the 11th CIFF ‘s top ten experimental short films. To the artist, noise is the form to break all the rules, and only by retreating into void will people truly be free from contradiction between voice and body, as well as body and mind.
As for the images, it has various styles and can also go beyond logic, or even destroy logic.
