EXPO LIO '92
María Cañas
Synopsis
A critical trip back in time to the ’92 Seville Expo, which changed the face of Seville for ever. This humorous and impassioned guerrilla video explores the ways in which culture has been warped by globalisation, the clash of civilisations and the construction of a collective identity designed to encompass us all, or at least those striving to create new worlds.
