The(ir) Blurb...

Overcome is a rotoscope animation that loops a simple performance about ego and Eros. In the tradition of the peepshow a private sexual performance is made public. A lone figure enters the frame, smirks at the camera and gets down to business. Is he simply there to entertain himself or is this a performance for the viewer? It eventually goes terribly wrong when he quite literally drowns in his own ego. This video is meant to be screened vertically and looped endlessly.
