Modern Allegory of the Cave

This video was created in Fall of 2007 for Philosophy of Knowledge class. I took the classical Plato's Allegory of the Cave and gave it a more modern twist.

In the video a group of people that are hiding from the evils of the world are depicted to be hiding in an underground bunker and avoiding any contact from the world above. One day one of them decides to leave the shelter and wonder outside. Once outside he is thrown into life. After some fun and research he remembers of his friends and returns. The people from the bunker don’t trust him and consider him a threat – he is eliminated.

It was shot and edited by Martins Kronbergs.

Second part is under construction
