Experiencing Interruptions?

Breakfast

Every morning, the modern human starts their day with breakfast to be fortified for the workday ahead. The idea that breakfast is the most important meal of the day is a widely accepted narrative.

The experimental, surrealist film *Breakfast* explores the struggle of coping with the often overwhelming demands of daily life. Day after day, we find ourselves compelled to fulfill tasks and obligations that we intrinsically reject. This constant pressure can take a heavy toll on both body and mind, potentially leading to long-term mental health issues.
