Directed by Stefan Gutternigh, Eva Amann
In 2035 the earth is ruled by a world government called "The Global Organisation for the Common Good". The "GOCG" wants to make everybody happy by monitoring the desires of its citizens with social media, omnipresent cameras, surveillance drones and - for those who can afford them - body implants. We join "GOCG" agent Cindy Karuso as she is visiting Mr. Berger, who has not spent his designated quota for lifestyle and entertainment products for the past months. Will she manage to complete her task for the mother-state and the father-corporation by taking care of Mr. Berger? And will Mr. Berger have something to say within the process?
Cast: Bety Aubrechtova, Luke von Geusau, Stefan Gutternigh
Director Statement
"It was a big challenge for us to adapt one of my comic books as a live action short film and we are very proud of the result. The blog "The Comic Vault" described the book as a "relevant, politically-charged story that feels like a modern retelling of 1984." I think we transported that perfectly to the big screen. A big thank you to everyone involved!" – Stefan Gutternigh
