The video visualizes the controversy embodied in the modern thoughts of xenophobia and flaneurie. Focusing on these concepts' behavioural aspects, and using purely abstract language, the piece explores the complicated and sometimes violent relationships that exist in our modern social life and how each individual approaches everyday life in a different way: and from different perspectives. What does it feel like to be in an unknown place? How do we respond to unforseen events? How is our individuality affected by others? The video is a metaphorical representation of power, and represents the struggle for survival that occurs between masses and individual.
