Wanted

Moilanen Milla

WANTED is based on the archival materials of the Uppsala Institute for racial biology (Uppsala University, Sweden). Today - in this very building - research into genetic manipulation is being conducted by dissecting DNA. WANTED animation deals with people's classification based on outward appearance. The subject matter is indeed a timely one, nowadays masked behind the cover of technology as it is. Does modern genetic manipulation justify the previous century's racial research? Wanted was one of the five nominees for the European Short Film Academy Award 1999.
