Chant of Hybris (2018)

Chant of Hybris is a short film in form of a music video for the eponymous song by the Austrian Death/Black Metal band Theotoxin. Through radical and disjointed sequences, it tells a nihilistic and devilish story of blasphemy, fear and disgust, in elegant and artistic but equally as disturbing and brutal black and white images, shot on 16mm, with the focus being on creating something visually diverse and beautiful that still triggers a feeling of grime and phobia through extreme sensual and psychological provocation.
