In Dark Globe, the human being appears as a mutated creature, turned into a machine of systematic destruction and self-destruction. With a visionary and hypnotic style, Donato Sansone crafts an animated collage that blends irony and anguish, evoking a world on the brink of collapse. Humanity seems trapped in a dystopian nightmare with no way out. Yet, through the cracks of devastation, a question emerges: is hope still possible, or are we witnessing our end?
