Houston, You Are The Problem
When two small-town misfits- an aspiring concert pianist and a pyromaniac wanna-be astronaut- are recruited for a colonizing space mission in their early childhood, their unique friendship is tested by buried grief, dangerous secrets, and the question of whether they exist to consume or to console on this planet and beyond.

Marz Gebhardt (she/they) is a 25 year old Canadian multidisciplinary artist, filmmaker, and writer whose practice combines hand-crafted clay stop-motion, music videos, short films and documentaries, and original sound. Their work centers fantastical and emotionally grounded narratives that explore queer and feminine identities and chosen forms of belonging through fantastical and intentionally handmade visual worlds. Working as a director, cinematographer, and screenwriter, Gebhardt produces visually distinctive music videos and short films that integrate tactile animation, narrative-based filmmaking, and her original sound design as central storytelling forces.
