We can say that he does not look for something in particular, he just wanders between people and things. At the end he finds, picking up what the metropolis lets falling around and lets dropping everything because all is consumable, even life and death, with the indifference of the news that goes fast on the newspaper, on the screen and then it is immediately forgotten, because other dramas fall, other comedies are performed, in the society of the show that has taken over everything with the arms of smiling or weeping…

In 1964 Andy Warhol had made a Screen Test of Sontag in his Factory and almost twenty years later she directed Waiting for Godot in Sarajevo.
