INGRESSO ANIMALI VIVI
Igor Grubić / Croatia (Hrvatska) / 2023 / 15 min / Colour
Italian premiere
A dog wanders around an abandoned slaughterhouse, sniffing for traces of what happened there. A sign reading "Live animals entrance" indicates the rooms where the animals were killed. The negative images and disturbing sound evoke the dichotomy between life and death, inviting us to reflect on the ethical implications of the food industry.
