APOCALYPSE BABY, WE ADVERTISE THE END OF THE WORLD

APOCALYPSE BABY is a cynical teleshopping show that uses the fear of climate apocalypse as a reason to convince the audience to consume more and more. A pop satire about consumerism and climate crisis, about global warming and individualism, about hedonism and guilty conscience and about the contradictions inside of each one of us. A reflection about the way we look away and an exposure of the cynicism of a capitalistic system.
