+6 Gain
An unsettling look at a group of young people that seem to linger in a kind of perpetual twilight, while playing and getting high. Like dancing on the brink of an abyss that stares defiantly at you. A film that moves from being observational to being abstract and sensorial. The revelation of a unique talent. Precise, powerful, with a touch of techno.
No Pain, No Gain
David is a teenager who feels he doesn't belong to a life where his family, friends and the girl he loves seem not to understand him.
Do Not Enter
Two working class youtubers ‘in the making’ enter an abandoned mansion to get their basketball back, and get lost inside while pranking each other. They record their ‘quick adventure’ with their phones for their audience, and tweak it with a fake phantom appearance to attract more followers to their YouTube channel. When uploaded the video goes viral, so they start a challenge: if the video reaches a certain number of views, they will enter the house again, at night, alone, totally unprotected. As fans react positively, they will do as promised, not only to discover and unveil the true nature of the place and their inhabitants, but to realize they might not be among the living anymore. Which opens a question - how far would you go to be famous?
The Return
