Synopsis

Step into RawGround 26: (Un)finished Work: In pursuit of the work of pretending (theme), a cinematic exploration of the delicate balance between appearance and authenticity in modern life. Featuring local and international artists, this edition delves into the personas we uphold, the memories we carry and the selves we shield. Through intimate, meditative films, audiences are invited to reflect on the labour of presenting oneself, the tension between outward appearances and inner realities, and the creative and emotional work of connecting with others. RawGround 26 offers a rich, immersive experience and cross-cultural artistic dialogue.
