'Anchor Point' is an experimental live-action video set between two extreme natural environments. The work follows a man who faces an unexpected crisis illustrated by the forces of nature.

 

'Anchor Point' employs experimental approaches to bring the inner reality of one’s thoughts and feelings to the forefront. In the film, the landscapes of the desert and the sea serve as metaphors for complex internal events—the thoughts, emotions, and experiences of personal turmoil and the process of navigating through it. Its slow-motion pace, oceanic sounds, and initial dissonance with the desert landscape draw viewers deeper into their own reflections.

 

The protagonist's solitary journey may symbolize the struggle against experiencing oppressed feelings represented by the sea, or, more broadly, it can represent the struggle to let go of any familiar patterns of behavior, thought, opinion or attitude—what is perceived as a safe ground—and embrace the new and unknown.

 

The film takes place in the desert and waters of the Holy Land. The desert and the sea, ancient companions in this land, symbolize the stark duality that defines not only the region but also the human mind. Through the lens of the camera, the editing, and the sound, the artwork merges these landscapes in various forms, highlighting their dualities and their interconnectedness. 

 

'Anchor Point' invites viewers to introspect and contemplate their own experiences within the vast expanse of nature, connecting inner and outer worlds.
