Astronaut of Featherweight is a dark vision of a hypercapitalist transhuman society in which the body is a commodity and money brings immortality. From space spa colonies to alien coal mines, rigs, and plantations, everybody is forced to take care of their bodies.

Dalibor Baric (1974) is a Croatian experimental filmmaker whose works often explore traditional genres like science fiction and horror. Using found objects as his source material, Baric uses collage techniques in order to produce sophisticated psychedelic narratives that often blur the lines between our outer and inner realities. His work also questions issues surrounding artistic practices in the digital age including ideas about authenticity, simulation/replication and appropriation.
