The work is a new approach to adapt data for the big screen, as well as in an cinematic installation context for art galleries, museums, schools and other mobile projection. And by that to investigate the potentialities of cinema as a room for reflection and consequent political action. The data are collected through research, information received from the 550 network organizations in 48 countries, and from local experts, journalists and researchers in the field of migration. "I wanted to live" is a digital memorial, a statement for universal human rights, with a strong emphasis on the respect for the deaths. A silent work, which might turn a cinema into a prayer room, a room for silent memory. The work is the first of its kind worldwide, seen from a formal standpoint. Written by Superbohemians See less
