The Turin Horse is Us


   Nietzsche cried when he witnessed a carriage driver whip his horse. 
However he cried not only for the animal, but for all of us,
living only for surviving, under rules made not by us.
God is dead - said Nietzsche - and we killed him.
And living a life without God, morality and love
 is a life that leads to the end of the world,
and there is nothing on the other side
in this majestic, elegant and emblematic work of art:
Bela Tarr's mesmerizing new film,
