Albert Bayona – Pandemic – Spain

Inspired by the parallelism between two science fiction novel written by José Saramago and John Wyndham on the subject of a pandemic. Pandemic remixes scenes from the novels’ adaptations for films, very interested in their elegant black and white scenes with a small camera traveling and filming the extras on the floor, which were transformed by dyeing the scenes in blue and red.
