A portrait of the city’s industrial, rebellious, and now technological identity. Welcome to Trbovlje as you've never seen it before — from within, below, and beyond. A Hole in the Future is not a tourist postcard – it is an insider's view of the city's working-class, rebellious and now technological identity. VR technology is a prism that takes the viewer on an original journey through the two key poles of Trbovlje - the underground and the supersonic perspective. The viewer is invited to indulge in a unique immersive experience by wearing virtual goggles or by simply scanning a QR code on his/her personal phone.
