The Bare Life (2020)

La vie nue takes us on a hallucinated journey, from the incandescent setting of the confined city, where the rare survivors wander without reason, to the hospital, where the gestures of caregivers and patients carrying the virus become rituals of life and death. . Antoine d´Agata transforms these opaque spaces into a shadow theater emptied of any semblance of reality and obliterates the very surface of things, the epidermis of beings and of the world, to reveal its tragic dimension.
The film La vie nue was made from photos of the work Virus by Antoine d'Agata, carried out during confinement linked to the coronavirus pandemic, in the streets and hospitals.
