You Can't Outrun Yourself is an experimental avant-garde film where the character battles with herself, struggling to understand and embrace her true identity. Blending dream-like and reality sequences together, the film connotes inside the character's mind. Escaping to different parts of her subconscious, she is met with confrontation, fear and desire. This piece of work highlights themes of identity, surrealism and subjectivity, where the instability of the self is at the forefront of the film. The film uses elements of mixed media montage to portray the character's inner thoughts. Inspired by the surrealist movement, the film pays homage to Claude Cahun, Marcel Moore and Maya Deren.
