โMicroorganismsโ, the most recent iteration of Zhao Rongjieโs decades-long Breathing project, is a documentary film using variations of kombucha SCOBY[1] symbiotic biofilm as its creative medium. Through fermentation, it explores symbiosis, decay and rebirth, and reflects on humanityโs interdependence with nature on multiple scales.
[1] SCOBY is an acronym that stands for Symbiotic Culture Of Bacteria and Yeast.
