BIO CAPRICE (10min. 2018)
written & directed by Jessica Mensch
starring Mathew Galindo, Jeanne Applegate, Patti Dog & Coconut
Bio Caprice (10min. 2018) spectacularizes the genre of animal television as homemade sci-fi docudrama by fast-forwarding it into a dystopic future, where aliens tune-in to watch Earth's last animal survivors inhabit a smoldering, vaporous new world. Bio Caprice deconstructs our almost creepy obsession with turning the natural world into a mirror of our own - emotionally, psychologically, and domestically - with animals strangely embodying our own fears and desires.
