WORKERS HANDS is a 2-minute experimental film that explores the rhythm, texture, and identity of labour through close, tactile visuals of working hands.
The film focuses on micro-movements—grip, pressure, repetition—to translate physical effort into a visual language. By removing faces and dialogue, the narrative shifts entirely to motion and sound, creating an immersive, almost meditative experience.
The editing is intentionally rhythmic, driven by natural motion and ambient sound rather than music, allowing the viewer to feel the weight and continuity of manual work.
Tools: Davinci resolve Focus: Rhythm-based editing, visual storytelling, experimental narrative
