How can we travel with love for the world? Discussion with Adam Szostek following the screening of NOMAD. IN THE FOOTSTEPS OF BRUCE CHATWIN, dir. Werner Herzog
Language: Polish
Partner institution: Ethnographic Department of the National Museum in Gdańsk
Footloose or fidgety? Bruce Chatwin claimed that for him traveling was a necessity, not a choice. He created his literary worlds with the same passion he’d put into crafting his own image of a daring explorer. How should we travel and read his books in this globalized world where Patagonia and the Australian outback are increasingly frequent holiday destinations? Is it still possible to just grab our backpacks and set out to seek some secret knowledge of the world?
