SYNOPSIS:

​

“This summer mosquito will be worse than ever” is an article headline. The most used words by media and politicians are: alert, danger and catastrophe. The violence wielded by an alarmist and defeatist society produces scared and secluded men who have no ambition. In the video the protagonist shelters in a garret, where she is weaving a spider web to catch the “malicious” mosquito ...

​

2033: the social networks have made ​​the Internet the place of the collective unconscious.
Confused identities are lost in a shapeless global identity.
 The protagonist decides to disconnect from the network to find himself.
