Selim Mourad / Lebanon / 2018 / East European Premiere / 36 min.
synopsis
Inspired by an article by Roger Salardenne about nudist experiments in Germany in the late 1920s, Sélim Mourad presents five naked people who confine themselves inside a house. A mixture of performance art and documentary essay, the film explores the representation of the human body in film while tearing down traditional ideas of beauty.
