Just some random thoughts - i dont get the fat guy creator thingy either but the moment at which his..child originally awakens has some watery image...like the whole scene is either seen thru or occurs in water. Maybe this signifies that we originally belong to the water, to the vehement, and we need to return to it in order to be cleansed. All throughout the video the figures seem to be rediscovering water - the chainging perspective of their feet as the light bends in the water they stand in, the water that flows on one of the creatures' hands...The bent needle the child uses to drop its dress might mean that people are too fragile (their look is obviously fragile) and need external forces to help them see..okay that doesnt make much sense :)..more to things to say, but i have to go..
The needle/pin on the wall reminds me very much of the needle/pin that you see on the lower body of the "child" in Prison Sex. They both spin the same way (as for same direction, I'm not getting up to check) and both have something to do with that specific person: one holding legs on and another holding and pulling off a blanket/covering. Just something I noticed.
