Film
When he arrived with his family in a new residential area, an adolescent gradually disconnects from reality and his emotions. Armed with a revolver, he wanders through this world in which his acts, even murder, seem to have no consequences.
The trend for extreme realism in video games these days, the less and less importance given to the imagination and the confusion that may arise from this have led me develop a film on the permeability which exists between real and virtual worlds which co-inhabit in the gamer and on the consequences that this may have.
The film questions the behaviour of individuals who experience reality by going from one world to another until they mix them up them completely. The idea is to make a project that puts the spectator in the same state of confusion as the main character, by leading him to question his own markers and his own fantasies as regards the images.
