Event description
The fifth in a series of short film presentations submitted by students from Fine Art at University of Sunderland.
Final affliction provides a visual commentary on the impact humans have on the animals around us. The greed for profit within the illegal pet trade and global market for animal parts has caused many species to become endangered or even extinct.
Depicted in the video are reflections within an eye which has captured the final moments of suffering for caged birds.
