The challenge
Give emotional damage and distorted memory a visual language within an independent psychological film.
The idea
After a traumatic relationship, a young man becomes increasingly detached. Desire and fear take on demonic forms as his world grows more surreal. The creator’s brief draws on late-1990s anime, neon-lit streets, rain and imperfect movement to connect romantic memory with unease.
