Synopsis
“Meat Grinder" is a stop-motion video that explores the tragic fate of a generation taken hostage by a perverse system rife with double standards and manipulative propaganda. In this world of hypocrisy and cruelty of the chosen few, the illusion of stability and security masks the real purpose of individuals: to be cannon fodder, mere resources for the system when the time comes.
The project metaphorically portrays how the system conditions its members to live without will or a desire for freedom, transforming them into ruthless dummies.
The video reveals that maternal protection is a mere mirage; the real goal is to serve as fuel for the relentless war machine. Like livestock on a farm, the system feeds its inhabitants, preparing them for slaughter, where war grinds everyone without distinction. "Meat Grinder" lays bare the absence of choice and freedom, turning the viewer into a witness of how this bloody, infernal mill continues to spin, enriching those in power.
More than 1000 photographs were used in the stop motion. All sets and costumes were hand-made without the use of computer graphics or artificial intelligence.
