Cinematography
The premise of this short documentary by Paula Lehtonen is simple: the artist has invited people to her studio to hang out with a therapy alpaca. Everyone can choose for themselves, whether they want to actively seek contact with the animal and whether they want to entertain or be entertained by the alpaca. The alpaca either responds or doesn’t, in its own manner. With the tender approach, Morrison & Friends invites questions about our anthropocentric worldview and explores the coexistence of species.
One of several experimental films shot in the late '60s and early '70s by the recently deceased computer music pioneer Erkki Kurenniemi, Florence is a dazzling, abstract travelogue shot between Italy, Switzerland, and the artist's home in Finland.
