Rooms

Rooms

59th TIFF: Greek Premiere

Ever since sedentism, mankind has been creating closed and strictly regulated rooms. They facilitate the satisfaction of human drives and therefore provide a basis for our culture. Rooms will let you immerse into five intimate room realities and experience their importance: More than just space framed by walls, they are complex social constructions. What happens to a room when civilisation has left its space?
