Luz
Directed by Tilman Singer
Produced by Academy of Media Arts Cologne
A formally experimental, deeply unsettling meditation on possession and obsessive love told through avant-garde techniques that prioritize disorientation and philosophical dread over conventional narrative.
Luz, a young cabdriver, drags herself into the brightly lit entrance of a run-down police station. A demonic entity follows her, determined to finally be close to the woman it loves.
