Launched as a research project concerned with essay films, Excitation of Narratives (EoN) presents the results of its findings and its production practice. Essay films began as a form of heretical discourse rooted in the eponymous literary form, but since the 2000s they have been frequently cited in studies of film history and film practices in contemporary art. Amid this flourishing climate, EoN cultivates the potential for a new discourse in non-Western regions, particularly Asia, which have a tendency to be marginalized.


Excitation of Naratives (EoN) is an essay film research project launched in 2021 by writers Isaka Shu, Takeuchi Hitoshi, and Hyun Woomin.
