Exit the highway of life and discover the side...
After watching the movie “La vie Moderne” is started to ask myself questions:
- Are we rushing through our lives?
- Why don’t we pay attention to details anymore?
- Do we become some sort of machines without brains?
- Why bashing culture away?
- Is technology/the internet really affecting us that much?
- Are we becoming individuals?
Are we destroying the world? I think...
