THE 
SANE 
SOCIETY
...is a series of fragmented films depicting people in their most vulnerable moments in life. It is a humble reflection on our contemporary pursuit of the “ideal self,” a phenomenon increasingly seeping into our collective subconscious within today's social media-driven society.

Inspired by Erich Fromm
According to Erich Fromm, The Sane Society is a critique of modern industrial society and its values. Fromm argues that society often prioritizes material success, productivity, and conformity over genuine human needs like connection, creativity, and self-expression. He suggests that many societal norms and structures actually foster mental and emotional distress, making the society itself “insane.”A “sane society,” in Fromm’s view, would be one that aligns with human nature and supports personal growth, freedom, love, and community. He emphasizes the importance of moving from a society centered on having and consuming to one focused on being and meaningful living.
