Anxiety

Yildiz Müge

A journey through an urban maze, where the protagonist searches for the meaning of their existence in the heart of the city. While wandering familiar streets, they find no answers — only one overwhelming emotion: anxiety. It is a part of everyday life, from which escape becomes possible through the poetry of Henri Michaux.
