Zmago Lenardič

This is the story of the first martyr of free speech. Socrates is on trial for his life. He will be put to death. 2,500 years later we remember his words.

Slovenian experimental film by Zmago Lenardič. In the video, the author presents documentary-experimental footage of the erupting volcano Etna in Sicily. The scene is almost static, showing a volcano that was active again after a long period, and the author found himself at the foot of the mountain at that time. Video defines a kinematic experience supported by dramatic music from which media space-time emerges.
