Synopsis
There are 8 billion people living on Earth now.
8 Billion Selves by Nemo Vos takes the scenic route across this planet.
In the shoes of an observing visitor, we travel through the world where 8 billion people are born, work, wage war, love, dance, create art, and die.
8 Billion Selves is not an ordinary film. It is Virtual Reality.
A medium for which a visual language has not yet been developed. It is a new poetry. What you see, what you experience, is something only you can experience like this. Only you. Among 8 billion others.
