BUZZ OF THE EARTH

Greta Stocklassa
CZ, 2024, 28 Min

The European Space Agency forms a group of scientists whose task is far from simple—they are to compile a comprehensive report on humanity to be sent to alien civilizations.  Unconventional mockumentary about the unwillingness to listen to those who think differently.

Part of the short film programme THE FEMALE GAZE.

Greta Stocklassa is a filmmaker curious about questions of identity, communication, and personal responsibility regarding the state of the world. In her previous film, the documentary Blix Not Bombs, she interviewed retired diplomat Hans Blix about his career as the UN's chief weapons inspector during the war on terror. This time, in her short mockumentary Buzz of the Earth, she offers a witty take on the difficulties of communication and the unwillingness to listen to those with differing opinions.
