Presented at Lo schermo dell’arte 2020
The film is part of VISIO – European Programme on Artists’ Moving Images – 9th edition
In “What is man?”, a documentary made in Milan in 2014, randomly chosen people who agreed to anonymously take part in an interview answer the question ‘What is man?’.Through words, the video records a geo-cultural landscape in which answers in different languages represent the profound influences of different cultures and generations. The interviewees’ responses reveal how obsolete our ideas about our species are, compared to the globalized and technologically advanced society in which we live.
