Goodbye / Nevesoma (United States) by Anastasia Bezhan
Amsterdam Independent Film Festival
•
2m 22s
“Goodbye” is a surreal visual poem about the quiet violence of self-transformation. Blending soft horror and mythological symbolism, the video follows the artist through slime-coated cocoons, sterile hospital corridors, animal totems, and haunting dreamscapes. It explores identity as something constantly shedding, splitting, and blooming — where beauty and decay coexist.
The final verse unfolds in a language tied to earth, memory, and myth — a soft echo of my Slavic heritage.
