INFINITE, 4min., USA, Experimental
Directed by Peter Tedone
A stylized visual metaphor and experimental twist on the man-against-self story. An fantastical, neo-noir inspired allegory for the cycle of self-destruction we perpetuate through choices and behaviors we are unable or unwilling to give up--the behaviors that trap us in an endless cycle, a very real, highly pitched battle with no end, with the enemy who knows us best: ourselves.
[This film contains stylized violence.]
