My Galactic Twin Galaction

A clever use of point of view marks out this great Latvian student film. A guard’s game of Tetris is interrupted when one of his security cameras fails. Fixing it however, becomes more than just a routine task, when the lift breaks down and the game really begins. Imagine discovering by email that you have a twin in a neighbouring galaxy who needs your help to fight evil forces? Sasha Svirsky narrates his character’s concerns and motivations in a wild reflexive mash up of colour, glitch and movement. “I like to improvise,” he says.
