'Under-construction' is a two-minute experimental documentary film that explores the theme of tranquillity in modern life. The film weaves together self-shot and archival footage to create a vivid representation of the sensory bombardment that characterizes contemporary existence. The film creates an immersive experience by layering archival scenes of warfare, urban construction, and media saturation with dissonant soundscapes, including the relentless buzzing of news broadcasts and the ominous echoes of explosions. This artistic choice supports the film's central thesis, inspired by Garry Shandling's reflections on the importance of silence in a noisy world. The film invites the audience to ponder the frenetic pace of modernity and the profound need for moments of silence and introspection.

​

In 'Under-construction,' every frame, every juxtaposed image, and every dissonant sound is a carefully curated component of this experimental narrative. The project transcends conventional storytelling, employing innovative cinematic techniques to provoke thought, evoke anxiety, and ultimately, to offer a powerful commentary on the state of contemporary society. It invites the audience to reflect and find solace in silence. The film is a manifesto that provokes thought and emotion.

Garry Shandling: "The world is too noisy and distracted to probably ultimately survive. Everyone needs to shut the fuck up. The answers are in the silence. Monks set themselves on fire to protest and to make this point. Just consider it."
