This film is based on the concept of Entropy. Entropy, derived from the Greek "entropia," means "a turning" or transformation. As the second law of thermodynamics, entropy rules that transformation will almost always lead to chaos and that disorder is inevitable and increasing in all aspects of the universe, even with the simple cracking of an egg. My piece both accepts and challenges this notion, speaking to the ephemerality of existence and the idea that humans can sometimes be set back or haunted by the impending disorder that entropy whispers will come.

So, my film is for those angered or discouraged by humanity right now, and for the people working to make sure this chaos will not come. I posit that we can resist entropys rule, and that we can right wrongs through collectivism and love. That we can empower each other to put trust in the inexplicability of our cosmos and endeavor to reframe and revise the systems which govern our lives.
