Manifesto
2015 · Movie · 98 min · ★ 6.8 · 74% critics
This experimental film strings together short vignettes of everyday life, each built around spoken excerpts from influential art and political manifestos. As the scenes shift between very different roles and settings, it becomes a witty, striking collage that asks what art is for, who it serves, and how rules can both inspire and restrict creativity.
