The Man Without A Face
The Living Art Museum
Runs until April 10
Free
As part of the Sequences Art Festival, The
Living Art Museum is showing 'Artifacial
Intelligence,' a unique film about humanity,
art, and the search for identity. The film is set
in Iceland in a dystopian future, where global
warming has caused massive destructive
flooding. As humanity struggles to survive,
the last attempt to preserve art has led to
the creation of Gernot Faber, a human who
wears a mask that controls his thoughts and
emotions. We follow Gernot as he attempts
to find the Blue Lagoon, which he believes
is the only escape from the mask and will
transform him into a normal human being.
Along the way, Gernot must battle external
forces, as well as his own internal demons.
As he struggles to remove the artificial face
he wears for the world and to find out who
he truly is, which is a challenge that we must
all face at some point in our lives, Gernot's
adventure is the ultimate journey of self-
discovery. SG
