Anno 2020

James Morcan has successfully transformed his novel ANNO 2020 into a visual exploration of that moment in history - the year 2020 - when Covid19 disrupted our lives. Spanning multiple continents and cities, this lucid insight into how we all struggled to make sense of lock downs, wearing mask, confining our communication to cell phones, facetime, and streaming is brought to life through a sensitive interplay of characters of all types, searching for meaning, physical needs, and questions about life that suddenly became of paramount significance and importance. Not only is the well written, acted, photographed and directed, but it also proves to be a viable memory stone for that challenging year.
