‘Mit Moby Dick Durch Amerika’ explores contemporary America through the combined lens of social media and the epic novel by Herman Melville, revealing a country riven by contradictions and divisions. Using the themes from the novel as a guide, we interview young Americans about a range of pressing issues – from consumer culture and the housing crisis, to racial justice and climate change.
The film was broadcast on public broadcaster ARTE in November.
