Description
Impermanence is part of the "Human Frames" art film collection, which explores different psychological states such as happiness, desire, madness, fanaticism, fear, anger, isolation, melancholy, and Mono no aware. This volume presents five contemporary works from Asia and Europe that reflect on the constant becoming and change of all beings, as well as the inherent ephemerality of human existence. The films invite us to look back in order to move forward.
