Review of Traceroute (2016) by Peter B — 07 May 2017
Austrian filmmaker and artist Johannes Grenzfurthner tries to answer a simple question. What is a "nerd"? He doesn't give us a clear definition, but rather provides us with fascinating examples and observations. First, he tells us about his own life, in an amusing journey back in time to the 1970s and 1980s. Then he takes us on a journey from San Francisco to the East Coast of the USA, and introduces us to other nerdy people to talk about their obsessions, ideas, interests.
The film is a funny road movie and insightful commentary about cyberpunk, nerd culture, science and art.
