documentaries, which observe
humanity and the world
around us with a personal
and sensitive touch.
Five Star Existence
/Sonja Lindén
People and technology are becoming increasingly intertwined. With the
accelerating pace of everyday life and our increasing virtual presence as
individuals, the line between the real and the virtual self has begun to
blur. In this personal and cinematic journey, the director observes the
links between freedom and dependence of our time.
