Edible Water Bottles

Anežka Horová / Czech Republic / 2020 / European Premiere / 3 min.


synopsis

What if in one of the possible versions of the future, is was not only material objects that were scarce commodities - but also water. The film examines a situation in which water becomes a luxury commodity and gradually awakens in us the fear of its possible shortage, one which could take place in the near future. The emotional aspects of the film are underscored by the melancholic music of Never Sol.

“The video Edible Water Bottles speaks using current advertising language, which points to its utter emptiness.” A. Horová
