dc.description.abstractThis film explores the existential confrontation brought about by the Covid-19 pandemic. It preserves a phenomenological account of “experiencing the experience” of the Covid-19 pandemic. The film documents the “depresentation” process, the encounters of nothingness, and dilemmas of self central to lockdown. Void of social resources, lockdown was uncanny, an eerie blend of the familiar and unfamiliar, which caused novel societal-wide malaise. The chapter expands on themes in the film, it exposes additional conceptualisations, discusses the dimensions of malaise (dearth futurism, potentialities, imposing irreality, other-less-ness, and consumerism claustrum) and offers the illustrated model “won from the void” depicting identity transition during the Covid-19 pandemic.en
