Flicker is a short fiction film that visualizes the inner turbulence of a college student grappling with anxiety and isolation. In his mind, life manifests as a constantly flipping television, each channel presenting a distorted version of himself navigating campus life, euphoric memories as trailers, critical information as news segments, introspection as documentaries, private moments as home videos, and academic struggles as vintage video games. What begins as a coping mechanism rapidly descends into chaos as the channels accelerate, repeat, and blur reality with simulation. The film immerses viewers in his restless inner world, portraying anxiety as both visual spectacle and lived experience, culminating in a desperate attempt to reconnect with reality.
