Stuck

Synopsis

Stuck is a nightmare, cliff-hanger in which the 'central' character is trapped in a situation and tormented by illusions of freedom. My intentions as the filmmaker was to produce a self-reþexive, absurd puzzle which experiments with ideas revolving around the sometimes-ominous power of the 'sanctuary of the screen'.
