Acting
A self-aware "bad film student" attempts a masterclass in cinematic larceny, setting out to copy the style and technique of Martin Scorsese's Raging Bull, a film he hasn't even seen. Aided by an expert friend and severely limited resources, this humorous production journal documents the chaotic, under-budget struggle to translate the original's complex themes of toxic masculinity and deep isolation into a short film. A critical reflection on the impossible ambition of capturing genius under pressure.
