HOMO SAPIENS
Austria, Germany 2016 – Director: Nikolaus Geyrhalter – Original language: German – Subtitles: None – Length: 90 min.
What would the world look like without people? What if they were swallowed from the earth from one day to the next? The wind whistles through derelict abattoirs, shopping centres lie empty and slowly, very quietly, the snow would cover the concrete. HOMO SAPIENS is a documentary journey right into this world without people and without language. Julia Teichmann
