Ground Control

2022 · 94 min

A disorienting, introspective plunge into a fractured mind, blending live action and animation in a way that feels both experimental and deeply unsettling.

Directed by
Helmut Karner
Genres
Thriller, Drama, Mystery
Tagline
"Male protagonist: completely desolated with voices in his head. Very original."
Overview
A journey to an unknown star, a children's theatre play, an untalented writer and the fear of becoming the worst version of oneself. A mixture of live-action footage and animated scenes. A stream of (un)conscious stereotypes.
How it feels
Dark, eerie, melancholic and absurd. Slow-burning and demanding.
About
Identity, madness, isolation, art
Content
Mild violence, sexual content and language. No gore.
