Intergalactic Tales of the Delusional Mind

A narcissistic filmmaker is given the chance to direct and change his failings as a lover after a mysterious meteorite breaks through his window.

Intergalactic Tales of the Delusional Mind explores a cautionary tale about how pride blinds us to our shortcomings and necrotizes genuine human connection. Parodying the lives of the directing team of Forrest Lorenzen and John Puckett, Intergalactic Tales of the Delusional Mind also provides a cutting commentary on how growing artists struggle to carve out a space in the ever growing and competitive world by often resorting to over compensation.
