Es Morgan’s intimate online film explores trans embodiment, visibility, being with others and being alone.

Separated by distance, how might we still feel our bodies meet, or even merge? Es Morgan’s film moves through breath-like cycles in a continuous loop, interweaving textured poetry with movement.
