i am so intensely affected by the elastic heart video and i keep watching it over and over to try and figure out why that is because it’s clearly not a good relationship between the two, it’s not a healthy portrayal of a father daughter bond but the moments between them, when he’s about to escape the cage and then stays because she’s crumpled on the floor, how he nearly touches her and she flinches away, in the end when she tries to wrench him from the cage, those little tender in between moments which barely exist, it’s so strange, it’s such a captivating visual
