Overview

"On his first day at work in a large factory, Milos sets out to prove himself, only to discover a workplace frozen in inertia. No one seems to know what the factory produces, what their role is, or who is in charge. To find his purpose Milos embarks on a journey that leads him deeper and deeper down the factory, encountering men who are all doing the same thing: nothing."

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A Kafkaesque descent into bureaucratic meaninglessness, this short film follows a young man trying to find his purpose in a vast, inscrutable factory where nothing seems to matter. It's funny and eerie in equal measure, slowly becoming more hypnotic the deeper it goes.
