A Terrrible Beauty

By Iram Ghufran
50 mins, 2023
7:00 pm

A science-fiction fable set in the "miracle city" of Yiwu, in one of the world's largest wholesale markets for small commodities. Time is plastic as we travel into the near future in the company of an unusual pair, a mannequin and a person. They encounter a universe of “Forever” goods - that simultaneously entice and repel in their promises. The film is an invitation to revisit questions around technology, mortality and what it means to be human today.
Filmmaker Iram Ghufran will be present for an introduction and post-screening discussion.
