YOU ARE OVERREACTING

RheinMain Short Films

A young woman in front of the TV at home, zapping away. No matter what channel she lands on, misogynistic speeches from high-ranking politicians or advertising images of sexualised female bodies assault her ears and eyes. That is, until the President of the United States suddenly grabs her crotch and pulls her into an alternate dimension that is every bit the equal of our medial reality. In YOU ARE OVERREACTING, scenes of everyday misogyny are condensed into a world on the verge of a nervous breakdown.
