MCFF No. 3 presents: DREAMING AN ISLAND – Sat Jul 30 @ 3pm
July 30, 2022 @ 3:00 pm - 4:30 pm
3:00 pm - 4:30 pm
AMERICAN PREMIERE!
What if everything stopped? If the wheels of the economy were to come off permanently? The Japanese island of Ikeshima is a place that seems to be ahead of its time, showing us a possible future. The few remaining inhabitants live in a surreal setting, clinging to a normality that seems however to escape them. A dreamlike journey, which forces us to think about our relationship with the planet but also about social isolation and loneliness.
Running Time: 1 hour, 16 minutes
