At home in Burkina Faso, filmmaker Simplice Herman Ganou usually documents human relationships. A new project takes him to Winterthur in Switzerland, where he has trouble making contacts. How can he find a story, if no one will talk to him? Will he be able to overcome people’s fear of the unknown?
In this playful and performative short, director Simplice Herman Ganou puts on a series of public stunts in a bid to get closer to strangers, break down barriers, and maybe make some friends. With anarchic comedy and disarming honesty, Ganou’s film confronts our fear of the unknown and “the other.”
