It Is What It Is” is an experimental and abstract animated short film centred around the interaction of two hands. One hand is dedicated to constructing the ideal and perfect world, while the other hand, refusing to be outdone, disrupts and sabotages the order of the world. Through the entanglement of these hands, the animation expresses the internal struggle of perfectionists and the anxiety they face when confronted with imperfections.
