Albert Bayona – Cosmonaut – Spain
Cosmonaut raises doubts as to whether the landing on the moon has really taken place at some point in history or whether, on the contrary, everything we have seen until today has been a crude chroma that reproduces that perfect waving of the flag. The result is an eponymous five-minute film in which Bayona turns the experience of this supposed first arrival of man on the moon into a frustrated sketch.
