Forbbiden Words

1:38''

2014

 

This video was made using a programming language code; the red words come out from the mouth while is moving.

As a reference to the mafia, the word "SICARIO" was a forbidden word on the newspapers and media on 2013 in México, however, the problem is not the word itself but the increase of the corruption.

 

To start to forbid words on the media, in some way, is to start to hide and avoid the real situation. This video shows a word filling the space as a metaphor for what silently the same word is filling in real life.
