ONLY HUMAN (HOMO)
DRAMATIC FEATURE | 96 MINS | FORMER REPUBLIC OF MACEDONIA | DIRECTOR: IGOR IVANOV | PRODUCER: TOMI SALKOVSKI | AUSTRALIAN PREMIERE
Part black comedy, part thriller and part deep social drama - Ken Loach meets Quentin Tarantino as award-winning Director Igor Ivanov explores the essence of humanity, personal and societal values, connection (and lack of), identity and self determination.
ONLY HUMAN shows six faces, six phases of human behaviour in cleverly- connected episodes as desperate characters meet unwittingly in a modern metropole in the eternal search for the means to survive - and to find some form of love.
Homo Faber – Working Man
Homo Adorans – Adoring Man
Homo Ludens – Playing Man
Homo Ridens – Laughing Man
Homo Economicus – Earning Man
Homo Amans – Loving Man
The jobless graduate becomes a grave-digger, the grieving widow a nun, the priests gamble and gangsters rule the courts. Only the lonely child may find some affection when hope springs eternal.
