Watercraft

2024 · 4 min

A brief, bizarre contest that feels like a deadpan joke stretched to its limit, leaving you amused and slightly baffled.

Tagline: Elsa is a very discerning customer in the market for a new house salesman.
Overview: Elsa is looking to hire a realtor and pits two potential agents against one another in a series of challenges. Montreal director Auclair-Doucet’s motto is “stay weird” and you'll see here he’s doubled down on his mission.
How it feels: Absurd, satirical, whimsical and dark. Brisk and needs your attention.
About: Work, identity, obsession, class
Content: Mild violence and language. No gore or sexual content.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
