Brief Explanation

A DIY enthusiast is about to begin his project. As he starts, he is burly naked and dives off a cliff into all sorts of materials - a metaphor for rediscovering his passion for life through an invigorating outdoor project with the elements. He achieves a therapeutic satisfaction. A sadomasochistic relationship with pain and pleasure; although it looks uncomfortable, it feels pleasurable. Combining the sensual tonality of a Day Spa with the physical chaos, roughness, dirt, grime and sweat of DIY culture fuels the comedy. So although our hero violently tumbles through each elemental texture, he’s loving every moment of it and ultimately feels very “alive“.
