Premiere: Gothenburg Film Festival 2019 / Format: Fiction / 14 min
The Average is a film about the pursuit of mediocrity. Led by a woman dressed in Dalí's melting clocks, we meet a centipede that breaks in two, a tv anchor and a writer fighting about the separation of the collective, and an Ikaros who no longer wants to burn.
