Our story
A surreal anti-coming-of-age film following a young man offered an escape from his monotonous routine.
We have all known people that haven't progressed in their lives or experienced a difficult crossroad at some point and the anxiety that follows. The aim for this project is to execute this relatable experience, which appeals to every age demographic. A lot of our academic focus is not just in the studio, but also in our theory work which focuses on surrealism and realism.
