About the consequences of cities and their construction on our lives. Liu Wei films Chinese farmers expropriated from their land, due to the expansion of big cities. Their farmer gestures are now used to grub wastes and domestic garbage. Olivier Laxe looks at the faces of silent men, along the road next to a construction site. Mehdi Meddaci films a stumbling architecture on the Mediterranean coast, observes the extremely slow movement of bodies, the throwing of a rock as a link to reality. Louidgi Beltrame walks across the modernist cities of Brasilia and Chandigarh, inheritances of urban utopias from the last century. Charlotte Ginsborg documents the construction of an office space and shows the interactions between workers and their workplace.

The individual and the group: social, political and economic grading Nadia Hironaka and Matthew Suib present an epic animated and wild travel through a devastated urban landscape where wildlife has taken over. William Wegman films in a New York park a society made of human beings and dogs, each handling their business, in a fair distribution of daily work and pleasure. Bertrand Dezoteux presents a social fable of a digital society where hybrid animals gather and move around pointlessly in various landscapes, ending however in a protesting march. Umut Sakallioglu parades through different processions, deconstructing the rite of protesting. Egle Budvytyte reveals a society, which identity manifests through often quite opaque behaviour in public spaces– could it be a cult, a political or social group, or quite simply our society? The Centre of Attention orchestrates the docile audience of an art gallery, from a friendly greeting to a barehanded struggle. Manuel Saiz presents an effective crowd reallocating and grading system, thanks to a plug area. Danilo Prnjat pays two hundred men, asking them to gather in front of the biggest perfume shop in Belgrade and to wander inside the shop, underlining the contradiction between a liberal economy and a post-socialist and patriarchal society. Nooshid Farhid films a young man, who looks totally adrift in an urban area, emptied from any social link. Anna Ådahl choreographs a couple in an apartment, whose gestures are similar to some they could have among a crowd. Those images are interrupted with movie excerpts showing crowd gatherings. Daya Cahen observes the summer camp of Putin’s youth movement. Propaganda and group activities can function as an instrument in a process of mass radicalization.
