‘IT IS THE YEAR 20XX
A NEW ILLNESS HAS BEGUN TO SPREAD RAPIDLY AROUND THE WORLD, CAUSING HUMANS TO MALFUNCTION’
EVERYONE WANTS ME IT’S MY BIGGEST DOWNFALL – is a video piece about the lives of some personalities that are caught up in a self centered universe of their own.
Habits and behaviour that seem just like an everyday routine to the protagonist might appear as manic to the spectator.
How many of us live a life that they are not meant to follow? And why is mankind so wretched ? Let's celebrate the fall of the year 20XX!
