When the world as we know it falls apart and nothing less than human dignity is at stake, you can either think, “YOLO” or “Now more than ever.”
The program presents seven films in which people find themselves in situations ranging from ludicrous to life-threatening and they recklessly fight for freedom, love, and friendship. Fifteen-year-old Magda tricks the Gestapo during World War II, four siblings fight back against the White Gaze, and drunk girlfriends lend a hand to their roommate in a rather undignified situation. At a time when machines are becoming increasingly fantastic, this program counters with humanity—now more than ever!
