"this moment is not the same" gathers voices from all over the world
and explores the creative potential of human being.
Through frictions between art and daily life, humorous and contradictive moments appear,
describing through different points of view the unpredictable way of living
and working within the "jourparjour" community and their project "Laboratoire Village Nomade"
in Switzerland during three years.
While following the experiments in the house, the movie itself becomes an experiment
and shows the (serious and absurd) research of human being for freedom and fortune.

The tension between the moment and the money, between being and surviving,
between responsibility and amnesia, between not knowing and knowing — what you want,
why you want it, how to realize it, and how to let go of it.
And of course the burning question of how relevant 'art' is to anyone in the context of
culture as consumer madness. These seem to be some things that the movie is
concerned with. It made me reflect hard and in my current state, it woke me up
to some essentials that I was losing sight of. (Fred Frith)
