Lukas Hanus

Follows a lone humanoid creature, fighting for survival in a forsaken world - living off oil-spills from self-operating factories. Her quest for oil takes her across the desert and into an unknown world of steam and machines.

Film sketches compete for the filmmaker's attention, scenarios push each other out of the way. Too much distraction, all the time. A feverishly associative animation about a neurodivergent mind.

In 2020, Toni, Mia, Matze, Pauli, and Elena decide to isolate themselves in a holiday home - and spend a nice time together despite the restrictions imposed by the pandemic. But gradually the initial euphoria makes room for everyday boredom and unhealthy ways of dealing with isolation, which threaten to escalate. And the attempt to retain a certain feeling of freedom is repeatedly thwarted by existential fears.
