Marty Müller, nicknamed Jahoda, is a Digital Arts student at the Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Bratislava, specializing in hand-drawn 2D animation, sound design, and video games.
Müller works as a director and writer of animated short films. He takes an active role in production, guiding projects from early concept development to their premiere on the festival circuit.
Forgetting is my first short film from 2022, that I revised and released in 2024 with a new score. The film came to existence as a portfolio piece for admission into the Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Bratislava.
The story follows a daughter and her elderly father, who is slowly consumed by dementia. The narrative’s structure and visual presentation are purposefully shaped by feelings of disorientation and paranoia, reflecting the father’s deteriorating state of mind.
