Murciélago (bat) is a video essay on the human body and sound. A composition created by recording the rhythmic pulse of simple amplified gestures, intertwined with the macroscopic visions of portions of skin at close range. Like the flight of a bat, this video opens a portal to another way of seeing the world. Humanity is represented as a large collective body governed by an internal rhythm and by different energies that make individuals tremble in a constant state of trance that unites them.
