Jab
Inkerö Artor Jesus
A person is doing movements that imitate a boxing match. In a dialogue, two persons are wondering about how the person looks in the space and how they are. On top of that, they give guidance to the boxer. The wounds in the video are artificial, created by a make-up artist to resemble wounds from a fight. In the background, we can hear a weird ringing sound and the camera focusing.
