Im Sog – Hikikomori

In the organizer's words:

The young man H lives in seclusion in his room, he has moved back in with his mother. His mother Kiki tries to get through to her son in various ways. H tries to make himself understood in his own way.
In seven images, we accompany Kiki, H and his fantastic alter ego Jack on a poetic journey in a maelstrom.
What happens when a person voluntarily disappears: from the noise of the city, from the family, from work, from pressure, from conversations, from the public, from the speed of the crowd?
In Japanese, people who withdraw completely from society are called hikikomori. The phenomenon, which can be observed worldwide, bears the same name.
