20/20
Nouf Alhamdan

The idea for 20/20 was inspired by a quote, "God Gave Me a 20/20 Fingers," which was made by a sightless boy in the movie Treasure Blind. Twisting the idea of treating special needs individuals as disabled, the 20/20 fingers video clip presents sightless people as those with an enhanced sense of hearing and touch. Sightless people are compared to owls and fish in terms of the use of their senses as they adapt to life, showing that they are SPECIAL and STRONG.

All animals on this planet are creatures who share existence with human beings and deserve to be free. However, animals have been tormented by the human race for too long. In the animated film 'factory', I ask the viewer to take the animals' point of view, and show them the relationships between human and human, and between human and nonhuman, but from within other super-intelligent creatures' world.
