Project Detail

Comfort The Disturbed

Synopsis

Dog used to run a highly profitable team of international telephone fraudsters, until he was chased into hiding by a hitman. With little human contact and only a white crow for company, Dog has survived only on paranoia and memories. Now, two years later, he's still alive and desperate to live.

He's had time to re-evaluate his life, and realizes that he doesn't understand most people's idea of normality; but the lure of the buzz, the money and the bullshit is too much: He wants to get his old team together again for one last pitch.

So now he's back on the case, putting together a massive telephone scam, and we're there to witness it in detail so accurate, it's almost a beginner's guide to telephone fraud!

But will this lifestyle still provide him with the illusions he needs to believe in himself?

The Baby Factory is Closed The Baby Factory is Closed

Director: Deepa Mann-Kler

Year: 2026

A 20-minute single-player immersive VR experience that places users inside the body of Zoraan, a British-born Sikh woman navigating menopause amidst climate collapse and the ruins of colonial medicine. You breathe with her. You scream with her. You dance your way out of sedation. Blending real-time visuals, bio-haptic feedback and diasporic sound, this work reframes menopause not as decline but as volatile power; closing ‘The Baby Factory’ to ignite a cultural revolution. Using gesture, voice and biometric feedback, audiences become co-conspirators in a volatile act of embodied rebellion. This is not a metaphor. This is an insurgency.
