■ Primary Axis
- Entry: Domestic life turning into existential imprisonment
Reason: Family, obligation, and enclosed living space become a structure of psychic suffocation
Related Film: Repulsion - Middle: Birth as dread rather than continuity
Reason: Reproduction is not framed as renewal but as bodily horror, anxiety, and irreversible burden
Related Film: Rosemary’s Baby - Core: Reality collapsing into inner nightmare
Reason: The work converges on a territory where external world and psychic distortion become inseparable
Related Film: Tetsuo: The Iron Man
■ Secondary Axes
- Industrial space as mental condition: Urban machinery and sound become extensions of inner dislocation
Related Film: Pi - Human form under ontological disturbance: The body becomes the site where existence, fear, and identity deform
