Burned Out - Life as a frog

A frog in his mid-thirties drifts through another day. Trapped behind the screen of his dead-end job, swallowed by anxiety and the shadows of the city. A dark slice of life comic weaving humour, melancholy, and quiet despair into absurd realism.

Burned Out - Vita da rana"

Una rana poco più che trentenne scivola attraverso un’altra giornata. Intrappolato davanti allo schermo di un lavoro senza prospettive, soffocato dall’ansia e dalle ombre della città. Un dark slice of life che fonde umorismo e malinconia in un realismo assurdo e disperato.

Streaming from the void

In the year 2626, Earth has been devastated by climate change. Clean air is no longer a basic righ it’s a subscription service only the wealthy can afford. The space corporation Cosmic Z launches a mission to the edge of the solar system. Officially, it’s a groundbreaking scientific expedition. In reality, it’s a profit driven scheme to scout and exploit extraterrestrial resources, just as Earth was once exploited. To maximize revenue, the company turns the mission into a live streamed spectacle, casting a group of popular streamers as the crew and broadcasting every moment of their journey to the public. But of course from the very beginning, things start to go wrong. This story delivers a sharp critique of unchecked capitalism, the overreliance on artificial intelligence, and the environmental destruction caused by human greed. Did I mention that all the characthers are cute antropomorfic animals?
