Synopsis

In this crisp and compelling storytelling format, the filmmaker portrays human complacency to systemic crisis. Where small talk and bodily indulgence gain favor over action and attention. You’ll be left with the uncomfortable pondering on the privilege of chosen ignorance, as the world changes in front of our eyes.

From the filmmaker

Creatively built universes make room for joy, maybe even draw out a laugh, and distract a little from all the bad stuff. And we kind of need that, don’t we? Moments that are colorful, silly, and strange. Dreamy character design and stories that are worth talking about. And when you let yourself be immersed in all the colors, shapes, lights, and sounds, and open yourself up to the ideas of all the creative minds out there, the world doesn’t seem quite so bad after all.
