A Killer Of Our Time - an interactive installation based on a series of short films. aims to explore the moral limits of modern society.
All the films present a modern interpretation of the classic novel A Hero of Our Time by Lermontov by exposing the contemporary ‘ideal’ character of today’s world. All these stories uncover several relatable issues connected to modern dating and friendship patterns, male gaze in modern arts, toxic masculinity, fetishisation of Asian women in media and voyeurism for violence.
