Reading through this I keep thinking this is like some sort of satire, like this is a satirical scenario in a fictional story.
What is actually going on, he's a movie/cultural critic who is invited to be filmed for this movie answering a question like its a documentary style format, but then theres also this sci fi thing going on? Theres an audience watching the movie being filmed? Its somehow both a film shoot and a public struggle session against a guy who wrote insulting reviews of the previous films at the same time? He talks about a crowd but a crowd of what, what the fuck is any of this, is there a crowd of like filming staff and extras and shit or are there just random people and friends sitting around to watch a bad film being made?
Again, it just reads like its a bizarre script for some extremely meta film about local art scenes, this is all one single event he's writing about?
This is more foreign to me than literally anything I have read about any other culture or country, genuinely alien experience trying to understand a single part of this whole clusterfuck. Like this random art scene has made their own planet out of the gravitational pull of their egos.

Weird how the entire audience for this movie is also in it; kinda like that one arriere-garde movie in Infinite Jest
Or Synecdoche New York
Or Rubber
