Relaxer
Directed by Joel Potrykus
Produced by Oscilloscope, Sob Noisse Movies
A surreal, darkly comedic fantasy about obsession and stasis, anchored in Y2K nostalgia and the absurdity of an impossible video game challenge.
Y2K is approaching fast, but Abbie can’t get off the couch until he beats an unbeatable level on Pac-Man.
