A video piece that uses the tension and high-stakes structure of an interrogation to explore how truth is constructed, obscured, and performed. Framed as a choose-your-own-adventure-like presentation, the work invites the audience to grapple with what is visible and what remains hidden, forcing them to make choices and confront the gaps in their understanding, especially in our algorithmically-determined age of misinformation and one-sided narratives.

作品は、尋問という緊張感と切迫感のある構造を用いて、真実がいかに構築され、隠され、演出されるのかを探る映像作品です。選択式の物語（いわゆる「自分で選ぶ冒険」形式）として構成されており、観客は、目に見えるものと見えないものの間を行き来しながら選択を迫られ、自らの理解の隙間と向き合うことになります。特に、アルゴリズムによって情報が操作され、誤情報や一面的な物語が蔓延する現代において、この作品はそうした構造に問いを投げかけます。
