A love, a journey, perhaps an obsession, the thin line between life and death constantly questioned by love, an immortal feeling, yet experienced by mortals. This animated and musical short film features young Orpheus, the quintessential archetype of the poet, embarking on a journey that will lead him into the depths of the underworld, in a desperate attempt to bring his deceased wife Eurydice back to life

In 2006, a 20 year old animal and nature lover ventures into the woods with a camera and a sense of serenity, only to discover that he would emerge with his reality shaken, and that only his footage would be found.

The story told in Hisser was inspired by a true occurrence. In 2013, a young man in Florida was literally "swallowed up by the earth" when a cesspool suddenly opened up under his bedroom. The film's main setting is a bedroom by night. From the way it was shot, the viewer has the feeling of peering into an abandoned life-size dollhouse. Other sequences show close-up views of a young man lying on a bed with a tormented look on his face or cowering in a corner. The scene is accompanied by an exaggeratedly romantic song whose refrain – "It took me so long to get my feet back off the ground" – alludes to the loss of a loved one and a sense of abysmal loneliness. The song's emotionality contrasts starkly with the artificiality of the scene. The boundary between reproduction and reality grows fluid, and the virtuality – which the artist has carried to a near- perfect extreme – begins to crumble in view of the protagonist's physical and emotional frailty.

Diana, a young woman who suffers from social anxiety, works in the supermarket which forces her to face her biggest fears; unable to communicate with others, she takes refuge in an ideal dream: a still and silent world where she can be free but gradually and without noticing this place threatens to swallow her into oblivion.

Surreal environments take center stage in this visual odyssey.

A snappy animated diversion turns simple graphic symbols into colorful arrows of resistance. In the field of the rudimentary predecessor of the Internet, the author uses the tried and tested tactic of détournement in order to overcome the limitations of narrowly defined frameworks and transform the screen into a space of new meanings and the scene of a battle against the banalization of the mind. A battle that may have already been lost, but that does not mean that we can afford to lose the sharpness of the senses and the sharp sense of humor that the author demonstrates by repurposing outdated media technology in order to lucidly mock her and our reconciliation with the given state of affairs.
