What do we see when we watch the eight o´clock news? A proposition of reality. Some news corporation's idea of what is important within the time and space of one day. The news tells us that this is the reality of which we are a part—a reality where, generally speaking, none of our daily thoughts or actions are even registered.
If a window would open starts from the idea of replacing a public discourse with an intimate one. It explores alternative ways of talking about the facts that make up “the news”. It is the birth of another journalism, on the human scale of a stage, where the glance between two actors could have the same weight as global warming.
