Surrender Your Horns / 2022 / 61 min
After snorting powdered horn, a lonely Irishman undergoes a Kafkaesque metamorphosis into a rhino-headed man. Embodying both hunter and hunted, he guides us into a series of real and fantasy worlds. Documentary footage merges with the Theatre of the Absurd-style performances of unicorn nightclubbers, reproductive biologists, and horn smugglers. This tragedy comes into existential focus as rhinos are not only hunted in life but also in death.
