Private Project

Stimulous

,,Your art does not mean shit if you are not ready to die for it.'' Bokani and John think a lot about this quote when they pursue photography. They get caught up in their greed and try to find a way out through photography. But their search for the perfect photo shatters the line between art and reality when a camera lens becomes the target.

Director Biography - Marcello Cordoba Keller

Marcello is a German-Colombian filmmaker and writer. He grew up in Sao Paulo and Berlin and as a self-taught creator, he rejects the dogma of film school and any "this is how you make a movie" doctrine, believing you cannot place a model over how to tell a story. He approaches creativity with a virgin outlook, aiming to capture the raw truth of human experience.

Director Statement

I am a self-described "student of the image," My filmmaking is driven by an ambitious pursuit of EXTREMES. My debut short film, STIMOULOUS explores the brutal collision between artistic obsession and a generation's hunger for real feeling in an oversimulated world.
