Beschreibung

Being human isn't easy. We might think that consciousness and free will give us control over our lives. But our minds are dangerous and unpredictable places. We are susceptible to forces we don't understand. We are capable of inflicting immense cruelty on one another, and yet we also have the capacity to be tender. To empathise, to feel. Why?
