Disco is the first separate animation in a series of four, where the main character is a stylized stereotype figure that represent myself. At the first glimpse, I want the animations to give the impression of being traditional films for children, to entice a feeling of innocence, but too late get the spectator aware of a more complex existence. Disco is narrated in a very spartan way, with focus on integrity and occasional personal liberation. The girl in the video puts on a body-like dress and becomes more naked than she was before, and this temporarily changes her identity. After a short moment of change she returns to her prior self.
