The documentary Inner Selfie intends to redefine self-portraiture and tells the story of how technology and self-image sharing are linked to our search for identity and self-knowledge

An artist aims to push the boundaries of self-portraiture using advanced technologies. Inspired by the artist’s work, the director decides to create his own self-portrait through the process of making this documentary.

A Documentary Film

Our perception of self-image is connected to how we form our identity, our understanding of who we are and our self-worth. We are constantly exploring our notion of self.

One way we express that is through self-portraits, which are essentially based on the idea or wish to freeze, capture or document a fluctuating but significant slice of life. Inner Selfie examines the purpose of self-depiction and how our obsession with self-images is revealed in society.

Technology provides us with new ways of exploring ourselves and is a trendsetter in that respect. So, is our desire for self-definition also driving technology? Or is it the other way around?

Inner Selfie aims to give the audience a new perspective on their own behaviour by looking at the work of an artist, through discussions with interviewees and the intimate process of making a film.

After this film people will think twice before taking their next selfie.
