Utopia
2012-05-08The latest work from Australian political satirist, cartoonist and filmmaker Bruce Petty contemplates our efforts to imagine the future using animated and live-action sequences, fiction and reality. An accident takes place during the filming of a documentary on the future and the filmâs presenter (Rhys Muldoon) slips into unconsciousness. The actorâs muddled neurons recall fragments of his script, and he begins to consider humankindâs past and present imaginings of Utopia â an ideal and perfect state.
