In Austria, ceramicist Martin Kunze strives to save knowledge from current human civilizations on ceramic tablets. This crazy preservation project is the starting point for a poetic documentary show exploring memory and forgetting.

Based on countless interviews, this project by Swedish director and producer Marcus Lindeen and Franco-Swedish translator and playwright Marianne Ségol transforms spectacular real stories into sensitive narratives. What do we want to transmit about our world to our future descendants? In a work bringing together both performers and the public, Memory of Mankind explores our obsession with archives, our fear of amnesia and the passing of time, as well as the art of storytelling.
