Healing
Momus focused on only one scene: people sipping noodles. "I don't appreciate violence. I wanted to make a boringly peaceful piece out of this violent film. This film scene was very impressive, with its beautiful sound and color, and composition. I extracted the beauty and made this piece." It is titled "Healing." (new)
