Synopsis
In his workshop, a man labours away at creating delicate objects – eyes to give his blind wife sight. The task, however, proves too tricky. Heartbroken because he wants to help her, the man gives his loved one one of his own eyes. This newfound sense, however, stirs a vain impulse within her, which has devastating consequences. Using complex and artful stop-motion animation, ‘wHole’ asks us to ponder the power of sight and the sacrifices of love.
