Bar Code

The objects that populate our daily lives and the purposes they serve.

We use them to stay alive, communicate, go places and have fun. Objects keep track of time and abide through the past, present and future.

Bar Code is an interactive documentary, travelling installation and collaboration-facilitating platform where Internet users can stop and have a new look at everyday objects, play with them, and teach them new tricks. It is a place where you can explore who and what we are by finding out about the objects around us, in 100 films and dipping into insights from 30 French and Canadian filmmakers.
