Nothing important happened today, 04:35 min, HD, sound, Berlin 2024
In Nothing important happened today the understanding of reality is constantly questioned in a loop and the dream is offered as an escape room. Ambiguous and surreal sequences reinforce the feeling of an in-between state. The night dream serves the processing of experiences, the day dream allows an escape from reality.

During a performance by the filmmaker with a potato and a frozen fish, workers in a factory can be seen in the frame next to it. Live surveillance of a factory, whose location we do not know, flickers, as do the monotonous movements of the workers. Meanwhile, a male computer-generated voice tells us a story about the invention of a new dish that tastes great and is extremely cheap.
