Description

The video "Gold Rush" is a quasi-documentary account of the search for gold by three characters exposed to a risky journey and a test of character. Basing on Western genre, the film refers to the golden history of Lower Silesia - the legendary Gold Train and the former gold mine in Złoty Stok. Clashing the gold rush theme with the local hope for wealth, the video portrays the shadow of the unsurpassed west that shaped our sense that more means more. We materialize gold in a new iPhone "designed in California, made in China."
