Experiencing Interruptions?

Der Eindringling (The Intruder)

The story is about Sonny who searches for answers about his mission on earth and the overall question where mankind comes from. He tumbles into various film settings accidentally, disrupts and interferes the ongoing events. Movie extracts from about 60 classic films of all genres from Hitchcock’s prime time movies to Peter Jackson’s “Lord of the rings” have been filmed and cut out in a lo-fi resolution with additional bluescreen inserts.
