Emographic Census I

In the lack of scripted narrative - the fiction resembles reality - personal and collective. Using the form of an altered Census [not Demographic but Emographic] - reporting to none, the goal is to set out to seek faces, emotions, events, eyes, myths and stories, energies opposed to numbers, colors, institutionalized Gods and capitalist rituals.

4 Emographers set out for a 10 day round trip around Macedonia equipped with video and photo machines, ninja accessories, notebooks and pencils to find out what they will discover. The result is a feature film split in 5 parts – each a round trip on its own dwelling in a given theme. In the lack of scripted narrative – the fiction resembles reality – personal and collective. Using the form of an altered Census [not Demographic but Emographic] – reporting to none, the goal is to set out to seek faces, emotions, events, eyes, myths and stories, energies opposed to numbers, colors, institutionalized Gods and capitalist rituals. Set between two cycles of the presidential elections of 2009 – combining interrogation and torture of the open lens we go and see how the people live. In a country where the contrast of social landscapes, mutation of principles, coloring of minds of the masses, modification of recent history is an old news waiting to be herd and talked about, we travel and seek the imperfection of the moments with which we build a topographic essay on Macedonia. Dissecting the genealogy of power to reveal the deep wounds and substitute them with an open constructive dialogue and effective action.
