The piece centers on Riley Reyes, a protagonist navigating the tension between enforced control and preserved rationality. Set in a near-future or gothic-tinged urban environment, Riley faces institutional and supernatural pressures that seek to limit thought, memory, and emotional freedom—what the narrative frames as “infernal restraints.” The work examines whether reason and moral agency can survive when constraints become both external (laws, technology, other people) and internal (trauma, doubt, self-censorship).
What, exactly, are these restraints? In the 45-minute short film that serves as the cornerstone of the project, Reyes visualizes them as ribbons of black light that contract around the protagonist’s limbs only when she affirms her consent. Each ribbon corresponds to a logical fallacy turned into a physical law:
The genius of "Infernal Restraints of Sound Mind Riley Reyes" lies in its reversal of the Faustian bargain. In Marlowe and Goethe, Faust regrets his passion. In Reyes, the protagonist regrets her logic. She was too sane, too calculating, too aware of the trade-offs. And that perfect sanity is the noose.
