ALL CURRENT ART IS FAKE

Storyline

An edited version of Rosefeldt's installation work of the same name, Manifesto is an outstanding tribute to various (art) manifestos of the nineteenth and twentieth century, ranging from Communism to Dogme, in connection with thirteen different characters, including a homeless man, a factory worker and a corporate CEO, who are all played by Cate Blanchett. A striking humorous audio-visual experience.

A staggering achievement of craft and ambition. Julian Rosefeldt's vision lands with breathtaking precision.

Every frame feels alive. Manifesto is the rare release that takes its audience seriously.
