Wild Human, the ninth feature-length documentary film from Pittsburgh filmmaker/artist/musician David Bernabo, investigates how humanity has replaced wilderness with representations of wilderness. From maps to national parks to Sea World to nature photographs, humanity’s designs for the world alter the context in which wilderness exists. The results can be harmless (a floral print dress), catastrophic (nuclear bombs), noble (maintaining national parks), or complicated (upsetting natural cycles of life and death while managing fires in Aspen). Falling somewhere between documentary, personal research project, podcast, and performance video, Wild Human uses unorthodox storytelling to indulge in philosophical questions, quirky history, and a bit of doomsaying in analyzing humanity’s loss of wilderness and its piecemeal reconstruction. A theme of iterative destruction, masking, and alteration of “the wild” arises when exploring topics such as hidden sites on Google Maps, virtual reality, ghost towns, and systems that damage or re-contextualize the natural world like war and the stock market. A diverse pool of media is utilized from Youtube fail videos to archival footage to beautiful sequences filmed during road trips through Colorado, Utah, and Arizona.
