YOUR OWN SOCIAL EXPERIMENT
2024, 25'
VO. English, French
Confront yourself with a simple social experiment: that of an unwanted, slightly awkward neighbor who confronts you with your own prejudices. What would you do in the same situation?
The Tent could be just another social experiment from which you walk away having learned a little something. In fact, at the helm of this mixed-reality story, Rory Mitchell offers you a simple yet touching pact at the heart of a social issue. By dissecting the homelessness crisis in the suburbs of Los Angeles and summoning the appearance of a tent in a garden, it's our prejudices that this work brings to the surface, our view of our environment that it brings to light. At the risk of changing our minds later?
