FREM. Requiem for Homosapiens
Directed by
While technology and artificial intelligence make rapid advancements and climate change continues, mankind’s frailty has become ever more evident; perhaps we have reached a point of no return. Starting from these observations, the film director sets her experimental narrative in King George Island in the Antarctic where she offers a vision of nature beyond human perception of reality. Analogue images, evoking our sentimental memories, alternate with digital photos of awesome yet threatened landscapes in a mixture of musical fragments, dialogues, and thoughts. A view that nothing escapes and an ominous philosophical reflection on the limits of anthropocentrism.
