This animated short film is about the formation of a Master. Inspired by the work of Roman Polanski, in this surrealistic picture with elements of macabre absurdity, “Matter” metaphorically struggles in shaping both a man and the creator. “Matter” falls from an apartment window, like the hero of the film “The Tenant.” Paradoxically, a series of other tumbles transform “Matter” into a fully formed human figure that then performs a masterful leap, landing firmly on the ground, as Roman Polanski – famous film director.
