Your Spotify Wrapped as a fever dream identity crisis.
An experimental journey through a year in the life of the director, using his always playing playlist to cross the boundaries of fiction and documentary. Through scenes of both comedy and tragedy, realistic documentary footage and experimental sequences of the director's environment and daily life we get a sometimes estranging image of a young man and also an intriguing insight in his mindset and how this translates to the imagery on screen.

Editing
Music-driven cuts that turn daily life into rhythm.

Director
Willem van der Zanden
