Overall

In the quiet corners of Argentina’s zoos and animal sanctuaries, Collective Monologue captures the fragile connections between humans and other species. Through the daily routines of devoted caretakers and the lives of animals in captivity, Jessica Sarah Rinland explores questions of care, confinement, and our changing relationship with nature. Blending 16mm footage, surveillance images, and archival materials, the film creates a poetic and intimate meditation on coexistence beyond the boundaries between species.
