CODE OF FREEDOM 1991
Open Frame Award
This virtual reality experience transports users to the bloodshed at Vilnius’ TV tower on 13 January 1991 as journalists with cameras, confronting them with the toughest choice in the field of conflict zone reporting – namely whether to film and gather evidence of the Soviet army’s aggression, or to come to the aid of wounded peaceful protesters. Employing archival audio and an animated environment modelled on real events, this VR experience is a gripping documentary wherein users can make their own decisions.
This project is part of the OPEN FRAME AWARD exhibition, shown at DFF Frankfurt and Museum Wiesbaden.
