TOOTHLESS
Toothless is an essay film with a narrative. It was constructed with the drawings of old anatomical books, some images from esoteric magazines and a bunch of public domain internet video's soundtracks. Dragging from the individual to the collective unconscious, it tells the story of an existential journey: the journey of a toothless heroine in her pijamas.
