Thirteen foundational texts of the history of art and of ideas. Thirteen monologues, thirteen characters, all interpreted by the unique Cate Blanchett. Directed by German artist Julian Rosefeldt, the Australian artist gives form and voice to the manifestos of Tzara, Debord, Marx and others. Dissenting but ferociously poetic, Manifesto is a radical project that gives Cate Blanchett her most beautiful showreel.
