Swan Neck

Swan Neck is a short medical kinetic piece, where you play as an intern to become a medical professional, looking to recreate that one-in-a-million event that affected you once when you were younger: a swan neck facture. Where your arm breaks in such a way it resembles the neck of a swan, with the bones still inside. Gruesome, right? But that pushed you into this path, obsessing into seeing it again. And then a trauma situation happens at the hospital, flooding the halls with patients…

This was so chilling and full of tension, building slowly until the final moment. In the back of my mind, I knew where it was going, but I hoped it wouldn’t end up there. And still. The descriptions are so clinical, looking at horrific and gruesome event with such coldness and strange admiration. So disturbing. And so good.
