The Sunset Special
Year:
2021
Country:
Germany
Genre:
Animation, Experimental
Duration:
17’
Caught up in their own fantasies, the main characters wander through this tropical paradise in search of the perfect hotel. In a linear gaming-like fashion, they seem to be moved by some external force, not leaving any space for a change in course or new perspective. Conversation and behaviour are superficial as if part of a template. The perfect facades are broken open by a glitch heavy, psychedelic aesthetic, that allows a glance into what lies beyond.
