In a destroyed and abandoned city, a woman travels alone. She wants to pass the Forbidden Zone and get to the Sea. Deceptive traps lurk everywhere and the Morning Patrol is on her trail. The city’s mechanisms work uncontrollably. Electronic voices warn the nonexistent citizens to desert the city. A man, one of the few survivors, who now guards this city, suddenly appears. They will approach each other; they will try to recall the past. A relationship of violence and death, a story of love in an unbearable world.
Inspired by the exhibition And Now the Good News, which focusing on the relationship between mass media and art, we prepared horoscope readings based on the chapters of the exhibition. Using the popular astrological language inspired by the effects of the movements of celestial bodies on people, these readings with references to the works in the exhibition make fictional future predictions inspired by the horoscope columns that we read in the newspapers with the desire to receive good news about our day.
