KRASNY
An Introduction to the Philosophical Problems of Colour Perception (23')

Krasny follows the investigation of a philosophical cult who claim that their possession of Inverted Spectrum Colour Blindness leads them to understand a special truth about the nature of the mind and the world we perceive, a truth they name "krasny".
The film illustrates the concepts of subjectivity, secondary qualities, sense data and the private language problem. For more details see Teachers' Notes.
