‘A World Without Art’: A Documentary

worldwithoutart

In the last of our BFI Film Academy Bristol films, our documentarians ask a bunch of artists, musicians, poets, dancers to imagine a world without art.

We asked exciting young Bristol artists what a world would look like without creativity before making this horrible scenario a reality.

Imagine a world without art, expression, creativity, music, words, pictures… What would that world look like?
