Facing the Screen
2021, German. Directed by Semih Korhan Güner.
The silver screen is a window to the world — and the screen showing live surveillance footage is a window into the movie theater. Jannik is a projectionist. During his shifts, he uses surveillance cameras to keep an eye on the few moviegoers in the auditoriums. In reality, he’d prefer to see himself on the big screen. When he interacts with people, the line between game and reality becomes blurred.
