In a Hanoian hotel room, sometime in the mid-2040s, an anonymised PR officer from a synthetic rubber factory meets with an underground documentary crew, to discuss the declining supply chain of natural rubber by the mid-century. When asked about his unusual choice of outfit – a full-body black rubber suit that effectively obscures his facial features – BP102 claims that the ‘vintage’ natural rubber suit was passed down from his grandfather, and apparently is a highly-coveted item amongst a niche group of fetishists. Through a historical materialist lens, he paints a portrait of rubber’s traumatic but transformative impact on his home country Vietnam, interspliced with archival footage from the early 2020s of kink parties, revolutionary monuments in rubber plantations and a popular rubber influencer’s short-form content.
