Ggésék

18m Documentary 2024

What can we learn from spaces of futures past? Derived from the Kelate word for matchstick, Ggésék is a portrait of human-machine relationships in the twilight of Malaysia’s last match factory. A space once bustling with over 1000 workers is now manned by 26 with a single match dipping machine, reconfiguring space and relationships on the factory floor. We invite you to sit and contemplate with us amidst the immersive clattering engines and quiet moments of prayer.

This film is part of Shorts Collection 3 - A Body of Work.
