CHRISTOPHE LOIZILLON

Synopsis

What do a cow, a pig, a bear, a dog and two snails think about when they are faced with men?
Homo/Animal is the second part of a trilogy consisting in three shorts films. It follows Corpus/Corpus and precedes Homo/Vegetal.
This trilogy explores the bonds which humans tie with the other forms of life whether they be animal or vegetal. Man’s awareness as a living being among living beings is thinning down. Little by little, we have stopped to view animals as plants as actually living.
