“Tribute to Zoo Project” is a traveling exhibition dedicated to Bilal Berreni, cknown as Zoo Project, an illustrator and street artist who died in 2013 at the age of 23. An exhibition of student work created in the studio will be presented prior to a discussion with director Antoine Page and graphic designer Lilas Carpentier about the documentary It's pretty cool to be crazy. Part road movie, part documentary, the film takes viewers on a journey through drawings and videos.

Synopsis:

At the wheel of an old truck from the 1970s, Bilal, a street artist, and Antoine, a filmmaker, set out on a journey lasting several months to the far reaches of Siberia. Amid truck breakdowns and encounters with locals, an impromptu adventure unfolds, taking them from the Carpathian Mountains to the Aral Sea’s ship graveyard, from Odessa to Vladivostok.
