    After the guitars have fallen silent, a rocker’s return back home from a concert becomes a weird trip. The line between what was, what will be and what may have never happened is growing blurry. This grotesque journey through the hazy (non-)reality benefits from the skilfully built atmosphere of shady gas stations and bars, connected by a somewhat sinister deer.

    A charming touch of craftsmanship, carefully chosen colour palette and the quiver of cutout animation particularly evident in animated flames make this music video a suggestive spectacle. By repeating distinctive motifs to the hypnotic tones of the song, it acts as an audiovisual spell.

  • My Amazing Film

    2025 Adults 11 min

    by Adam Zahradník

    Individual schizophrenically narrated episodes take us through the instrumentalisation of life by creating pulp (mirroring the film itself) and personifying a machine. The film is rooted in the director’s infinite hatred of computers and, in a deeper sense, explores the boundaries of resistance in the digital age.
