Uchronia
A psychedelic docu-essay, inspired by Arthur Rimbaud’s visionary poem Une Saison en Enfer, in which the poet’s ghost travels through history, encountering revolutionary figures and queer ‘freaks’ such as Emma Goldman, David Wojnarowicz, and Marsha P. Johnson. These encounters form a multilayered collage that interrogates identity, the meaning of revolution, and the role of the artist in shaping radical histories and collective imaginaries.
