On May 10th we invite you to the opening of the 15th Millennium Docs Against Gravity festival. The opening film will be “In Praise of Nothing” by Boris Mitic. It’s a satirical documentary parable about Nothing, in which Nothing, tired of being misunderstood, runs away from home and comes to address us for the first and the last time. Researched through 20.000 pages of the most eclectic bibliography ever used in a documentary film, shot over 8 years by 62 cinematographers in 70 countries; scored by cabaret grandmasters Pascal Comelade and the Tiger Lillies; narrated – in simple childlike verse – by Iggy Pop.
